Lecture at UCLA on Chinese Colonialism in Tibet

The following is video of a lecture I gave at UCLA’s (University of Los Angeles) Asia Pacific Center. You can find the full length article of the lecture and a Pdf version, “The Discursive Art of China’s Colonialism: Reconfiguring Tibetan and State Identities,” on Lhakar Diaries. It was originally published as an article for CTA’s (Central Tibetan Administration) Tibet Policy Journal.

Also when answering a question at the end on Mongolia during the Q&A session, I mention a book called Collaborative Nationalism: The Politics of Friendship on China’s Mongolian Frontier (2010). I horribly messed up the name of the author. The correct name is Uradyn Erden Bulag and not Ulaanbaatar (which is the capital city of Mongolia), apologies!
