Thinking through the Dalai Lama's Succession
Description
In this episode of All Things Policy, Amit Kumar and Anushka Saxena discuss the scenarios to witness during the succession of the 14th Dalai Lama. Given the importance of the issue to the Gaden Phodrang Trust, the believers of Tibetan Buddhism, and Beijing, there is both a religious and geopolitical vantage point from which to assess India and China's responses and counter-responses.
Do check out Anushka's latest Takshashila discussion document, which includes her framework on assessing the 15th Dalai Lama's legitimacy and birthplace, and implications for Indian policy.
