Summary/Abstract |
This study uses micro-level data gathered for Tibetans and Mongolians living in the same region (Qinghai Lake area in Northwest China) and having similar religion (Buddhism) and livelihoods (livestock raising) to examine how cultural differences between these two ethnic groups affect their integration into markets, their means of livestock production, and the extent of degradation of the grassland. We find significant cultural differences between the two ethnic groups, and conclude that the impact of religious attitudes on the market orientation of herder households is the dominating force explaining a relatively high degree of grassland degradation among Mongolian households

Summary/Abstract |
In this essay I look first at some general problems of memory and of how events are retold from memory. Then I focus on memory of June fourth and divide the question by asking how three categories of people - perpetrators, victim, and bystanders have remembered, failed to remember, or tried to alter memory. The tripartite division of "perpetrators, victims, and bystanders" is not perfect but I find it illuminating. Nearly all the questions that come up have moral implications, so I call the essay" memory and ethics". I draw upon examples form illiterate, memoir journalism, film and personal acquaintance.
