Rebirth Control in Tibetan Buddhism: Anything New?
/ Ed. 14. 2. 2016
Research paper of Petr Jandáček is focused on China influence in Tibet.
It seeks to answer the question, if efforts of People’s Republic of China to control the reincarnation of Tibetian religious leaders by law is just continuation of long-term Chinese policy or if it is new way to exert the Chinese influence in Tibet. The author explores the possible consequences of new Chinese law from 2007 relating the current Dalajlama Tenzin Gyatso’s age.
The paper was elaborated for the educational project ALYAS – AMO Lectures for Young Asia Scholars.
