Summary

The debates over Tibetan cultural autonomy continue without a great deal of attention given to the education system. Never before have so many Tibetans attended school. Before long, most will be at school for six to nine years, and the number going to college and university will increase. What is education doing to Tibetans? This book is based on years of field research in rural, nomadic, and urban parts of the Tibetan Autonomous Region of China. This provides a context for the main focus of the book assesses the results of the so-called neidi school policy that dislocated the education of Tibet's best and brightest to China. Using extensive interview data Postiglione engages with the lives of the Tibetan students sent to China for secondary school, why they are sent there, what they learn, and how they function when they return to Tibet.
