Distinguished Research Award, Case Western Reserve University, 2016
The Association for Asian Studies’ Joseph Levenson Prize for best monograph
on Twentieth-Century China in 1989: Honorable Mention: ("A History of
Modern Tibet, 1913-51: The Demise of the Lamaist State").
This monumental study is a path-breaking contribution to our
understanding of modern Tibet. Melvyn Goldstein has marshalled an
impressive array of documentary, archival and interview sources to
provide critical new insights into the political and diplomatic history
of Tibet during its independence of Chinese domination. Particularly
important is the author’s use of Tibetan sources to go beyond the
question of Tibet’s relation to China, and narrate in detail the
conflicts within Tibetan society: between monastic and lay elements,
between reformers and conservatives, between rival regents’ cliques.
The Levinson Prize Committee of the China and Inner Asia Council
is proud to give Honorable Mention to Professor Goldstein for this
impressive contribution to the development of an important part of
our field.
