Abstract
|
:
|
Dibyesh Anand lays bare the strategies by which Exotica Tibet and Tibetanness have been constructed and investigates the impact these constructions have had on those who are being represented. In this masterfully synthetic work, Anand establishes that postcoloniality provides new insights into themes of representation and identity and demonstrates how IR as a discipline can meaningfully expand its focus beyond the West.
