| Résumé anglais |
The intention behind the establishment of the "socialist new villages" in the Tibet Autonomous Region (2006-2010) is to relocate 50 to 80 percent of the rural inhabitants, whose farming and pastoral practices are considered "backward" and "unscientific." In theory, this policy is aimed at bringing about a "hygienic" and "entrepreneurial" countryside. There is little doubt that this vast social project, which has been little studied up to now, will have far-ranging repercussions on rural life in Tibet.
