Introduction:

Most of the Chinese here have a strong feeling that those who support the independence of Tibet in the west do not have a complete picture about the past and present of this plateau.

Three senior scholars from Tibet Academy of Social Sciences join DIALOGUE to take a closer look at the political structure as well as human rights in Tibet before the democratic reform in 1951.
