Tibetans in Nepal

the dynamics of international assistance among a community in exile

"Based on eighteen months of field research conducted in exile carpet factories, settlement camps, monasteries, and schools in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal, as well as in Dharamsala, India, and Lhasa, Tibet, this book offers an important contribution to the debate on the impact of international assistance on migrant communities.

The author explores the ways in which Tibetan exiles in Nepal negotiate their norms and values as they interact with the many international organizations that assist them, and comes to the conclusion that, as beneficial as aid agency assistance often is, it also complicates the Tibetans' efforts to define themselves as a community."--BOOK JACKET.
