As an indispensable introduction to local history of the Khams region of Eastern Tibet/Western China (with due attention for contemporary thinking about frontier regions), this volume contains seven papers on Khams pa (Eastern Tibet) Local, representing history, politics, and agency and their historiographical representations on the Khams frontiers. The articles have been arranged to reflect common themes, exploring the fluidity of the frontier and its turbulent dislocations, the individual figures and their engagement with Chinese and Tibetan social politics, and Khams in relation to Central Tibet.
