The book explores Tibet's historical status, its relations with the Mongol and Manchu empires, Tibetan political institutions, the development of modern Tibetan nationalism, and the political transformations of the twentieth century. It also discusses the People's Uprising, the Cultural Revolution, and subsequent political developments in Tibet.
Sergius L. Kuzmin is a Russian scholar and Tibetologist whose work focuses on Tibetan history, politics, religion, and international relations. Hidden Tibet is presented as a significant contribution to Russian and international Tibetology.
Hidden Tibet traces Tibet's historical and political trajectory from its earlier relations with neighbouring empires through the twentieth-century upheavals that transformed Tibetan society and governance. Kuzmin examines Tibetan statehood, political institutions, relations with China and other powers, the 1950s upheaval, the Cultural Revolution, and later political developments. The book presents a strongly argued interpretation of Tibet's historical status and the question of its incorporation into China.
