ANT 307 - Tibetan Peoples and the Himalayas (3 cr.)


Why is it important to study Tibetan history and culture? Tibet is both emblematic of 20th century colonization and neglect by the international community and unique for its cultural contributions to the world in the global age. Who is the Dalai Lama? Why is Buddhism so important? Who are the Tibetans? Where is Tibet? We consider these and other questions from a critical anthropological perspective on history, culture, international politics and global processes.
