Restrictions and their anomalies: the third forum and the regulation of religion in Tibet / Barnett, Robert   Journal Article
Barnett, Robert Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract In 1994, at a meeting known as the Third Forum on Tibet Work, the Chinese authorities announced a series of restrictions on religious practice in the Tibetan Autonomous Region. Described by many outsiders in terms of abuses of rights, in fact those measures differed in important ways. By analysing the target, rationale and procedure of these restrictions, it becomes clear that some were relatively routine, while others were anomalous - their purpose was not explained by officials, the source of their authority was not clear, or the restrictions were simply not admitted to at all. These anomalous orders can be linked to major changes in underlying discourses of modernization and development among officials in Tibet at the time. They reflected undeclared shifts in attitudes to religion and cultural difference, and seeded the dramatic worsening in state-society relations that has taken place in Tibetan areas since that time.

Tibet protests of Spring, 2008: conflict between the nation and the state / Barnett, Robert   Journal Article
Barnett, Robert Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2009.
Summary/Abstract This preliminary assessment of 95 of the 150 or more protests in Tibetan areas in the spring of 2008 suggests that they were far more widespread than during previous unrest, and also that there was greater involvement of laypeople, farmers, nomads, and students than in the past.It argues that the struggle in China and elsewhere over representation of the unrest has been dominated by the question of violence, with little attention paid to policy questions and social issues.
