Hierarchies of cross-border mobility on the Sino–Nepalese border
The Himalayan region where the Tibetan plateau meets Nepal is a strategic corridor for trade routes between India and Tibet. Local border permeability in this region has traditionally been essential for the survival of communities residing in remote areas of the world’s highest mountain ranges. However, since the demarcation of modern states, territoriality has been exercised through the imposition of an increasing number of regulations to contro…
Lost on the path towards modernity. Urbanisation and livelihood prospects of the transitional generation in Tibetan rural areas in Qinghai, People’s Republic of China
The development of western areas of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) with accentuated urbanisation has had a significant impact on the established livelihood of the Tibetan pastoralists and semi-pastoralists. The middle-aged generation in particular faces enormous challenges to find its place in the changing environment and to adapt and develop new livelihoods that can provide sufficient income to cover increasing household expenses. They fin…

Traditionalization as a response to state-induced development in rural Tibetan areas of Qinghai, PRC
The current state-induced and top-down-implemented development and modernization of the predominantly rural areas of western China can be perceived as a clear demonstration of Chinese power in Tibetan areas, resulting in the repression of expressions of minority culture. This article argues that the local population’s various practices of traditionalization, as demonstrated through an emphasis on the maintenance or (re)invention of representative…

Making Space for Development: A Study on Resettlement from the Longyangxia Water Reservoir Area of Qinghai Province
Large transformations in the landscape and subsequent shifts of population have become an integral part of state development projects in western China. In the context of expanding infrastructures such as river damming, large-scale resettlement might appear to represent an effective solution in response to immediate or short-term needs. However, viewed from a long-term perspective it has the potential to unleash a range of major social, economic a…
Hor - a sedentarisation success for Tibetan pastoralists in Qinghai
Most outside observers of current development in grassland areas of China see sedentarisation policies rather sceptically. Among other issues, the accelerated planning and implementation period, the poor quality of housing and facilities at the settlement sites, the lack of alternative livelihood opportunities and the loss of nomad culture are commonly mentioned in critiques of the rapid sedentarisation that has taken place in China in the past d…
