Opis

THE TIBET GAMBLE examines the risky bets being played on all sides of the Tibet issue--from Western businesses and the Chinese Communist regime in Beijing to non-violent Tibet activists and militant young Tibetan dissidents. W. Kesler Jackson answers many critical questions consistently avoided in discussion about Tibet today: What will happen when the Dalai Lama dies? Is there a militant side to the Tibetan freedom struggle? How much time do the Tibetan culture and language have left? Does the Western image of a peace-loving, violence-abhoring Tibetan truly mirror the reality for Tibetans today? And, most importantly, how can the Tibet problem be solved?
