Hardcover. Zustand: New. The second volume of the India Tibet Relations (1947-1962) begins soon after signature of 17-Point Agreement in May 1951. During the years under study (1951-54), the position of India on the Roof of the World changed drastically. This volume shall go in depth into the slow deterioration of the age-old Indo-Tibet relations, gradually being replaced by a cruder relation with the new occupiers of Tibet. The Indian officials posted in Lhasa, Gyantse, Yatung or Gartok were the first to realize the true face of the Chinese 'liberators'. During this period, very few Tibetans had the courage to fight the ineluctable; most Tibetans, whether from the aristocracy or the clergy, collaborated with the occupying forces. "Will Tibet find her soul again?" wrote the Indian Trade Agent in Gyantse in one of his reports. The question is still hanging.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Volume 3 of this series "India-Tibet Relation" looks into the consequences of the Chinese presence on the Tibetan plateau. Ironically, the period 1954-1957 saw the first Chinese intrusions into Indian territory, particularly in Barahoti, a small flat grazing ground in today's Uttarakhand. On the diplomatic front, it starts with the Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai's visit to Delhi in June 1954, followed by Jawaharlal Nehru's trip to Beijing in October; at the end of 1956. It culminates with the visit of the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama, accompanied by Zhou, to Delhi for the 2500th anniversary of the birth of the Buddha. We witness the slow erosion of the Tibetan control over the Land of Snow's administration and the rapid building of roads towards the Indian borders.including through the Aksai Chin of Ladakh.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. Cloth hardcover, 432 pages, map endpapers, NOT ex-library. Gently used, interior is clean with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. In an untorn, shelfworn dust jacket. -- This book is an in-depth study of the origins of the fate of a nation. It begins from the time Buddhism was introduced in Tibet. It studies the evolution of the Priest-Patron Relationship with the Mongol Khans and later the Manchu Dynasty. It observes the effect of the appearance, in the eighteenth century, of a new player on the stage: the British Empire with its 'large insect' expansionist policies and its rivalry with the Russian Empire. It looks at the conservative attitude of the Tibetan elergy that blocked all the efforts for modernization by the Thirteenth Dalai Lama who, in his prophetic Testament, warned his people of the impeding avalanche: "and long and dark shall be the night". It analyses why Tibet was caught sleeping in its nirvanic isolation when liberation movements were shaking the world. In this unfolding drama, the year 1950 is perceived as a turning point - a Fateful Year - for Tibet and also for the newly free India who did not realize that in refusing to stand for Tibet's right for self-determination, she would forfeit her moral right to lead the decolonized world. -- Contents: Introduction; First Propagation of Buddhism in Tibet: The Light from India; Return of Buddhism to Tibet: The Second Propagation; Decline of Buddhism in India; Relations with the Mongols and the Yuans: The Genesis of the Choe-yon Relationship; Relations Between Tibet and China During the Ming and Early Qing Dynasties; Troubled Times: The 18th and 19 Century; British Imperial Wave: Contacts Between Tibet and British India; From the Russian Threat to the Younghusband Expedition; The Iron Is Hot: The Younghusband Expedition; Large Insects Are Eating Small Insects: The Difficult Years; End of the Choe-yon Relationship and the Exile in India; Simla Conference; Independent Years; Before the Avalanche; India Becomes Independent; China Becomes Red: The Communists Take Over China; Don't Rock the Boat: The Months Before the Fateful Year; 1950: The Year of the Iron-Tiger: The Beginning of the Fateful Year; From All Sides: Tibet Invaded; India's and the World's Reaction; Appeal to the UN: The International Betrayal; Debate in India; Pannikar Factor; Appeasement and Ahimsa; Nehru and the Tibet Policy; The Avalanche; A Possible Solution; Bibliography.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Though Tibet's system of governance had serious lacunas, the Land of Snows was free and independent. In October 1950, Mao's regime decided to 'liberate' it. 'Liberate' from what, was the question everybody asked. Though some in Delhi did not realise it, it would soon be a tragedy for India too, as it had to suddenly live with a new neighbor, whose ideology was the opposite of Buddhist values. The narrative starts soon after Independence and ends with the signing of the 17-Point Agreement in Beijing in May 1951 when Tibet lost its Independence and India, a gentle neighbour. Using never-accessed-before Indian archival material, this book is the first of a series of four books on the India-Tibet Relations (1947-62). The next volumes will respectively cover the periods 1952-1954, 1954-1957 and 1957-1962. (jacket).…
