This bold and important report by a group of Chinese scholars in Beijing challenges the official position that the Dalai Lama \u201cincited\u201d the protests that broke out in Tibet in March 2008, and outlines key failings in the policy of the government of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) on Tibet. The report is the first such analysis from inside China and comes at a time of crackdown in Tibet when the PRC government is taking an increasingly hardline position against the Dalai Lama.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The report was posted online on May 12, 2009, and has appeared only online in Chinese. It is the result of a month-long investigation by a Beijing-based lawyers\u2019 organization and thinktank called Gongmeng (Open Constitution Initiative). The report\u2019s authors, several of whom attended the prestigious Beijing University Law School, conclude that China\u2019s strategies to ensure \u2018stability\u2019 in Tibet have failed, and that China\u2019s propaganda offensive has created divisions and further exacerbated tensions.
