China, Tibet and the Colonial Question
b'
China sees itself as a victim of imperialism and colonialism. The modern Chinese nationalism, including the one adopted and promoted by the Chinese Communist Party, is defined through this.
\\n\\nAssoc. Professor Dibyesh Anand (Centre for the Study of Democracy at the University of Westminster in London) interrogates this narrative and argues that there is a fundamental disjuncture at the heart of the modern nation-state project in China. Focusing on Tibet, he argues for conceptualising and understanding China as a colonising power.
