My goal here is to trace the genealogy of ‘ethnicity’ as a concept through Tibetan Studies as a discipline, and offer some observations on its use, or more often, lack thereof, in a manner consonant with its theoretical deployment in cultural studies of other world areas. I suggest that the absence of a nuanced analytical framework for understanding ethnicity in the Tibetan context is linked to the difficulty of recognising Tibetan roles as dominant orchestrators of their own ‘civilising projects’ in addition to being victims of Chinese ones. ‘A civilising project’, as defined by Stevan Harrell in the Chinese context, “is a kind of interaction between peoples, in which one group, the civilising centre, interacts with other groups (the peripheral peoples) in","PeriodicalId":153404,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Tenth Seminar of the IATS, 2003.

To have tribe you must have mother tongue” stated a Shona tribesman, when asked by the fieldworker John Hofman for a definition of his identity (Hofman 1977: 289). While by no means a universal truth, this assertion encapsulates a widespread sentiment held by both indigenous peoples and those who study them: that language and identity are inextricably linked. In this short article I offer some structured reflections on linguistic identities along the Tibetan margins and the classificatory tools that are used to define them. In particular, I argue against the uncritical extension of models of linguistic classification to categorise ethnic communities in the Himalayan periphery.1","PeriodicalId":153404,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Tenth Seminar of the IATS, 2003.
