Speaker: Diana Lange, Principal Investigator, University of Hamburg; and Visiting Professor, Institute for Asian and African Studies, Humboldt University of Berlin
Moderator: Lauran Hartley, Director of the Modern Tibetan Studies Program and an Associate Research Scholar at the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University
Professor Diana. Lange will speak on the significance of waterways for infrastructure, economy and socio-cultural life in pre-1959 Tibet. She focuses on ferry and transport services in the Tibetan corvée tax system, including the nature of taxation on a specific Tibetan village – the fishing village of Jun in Chushur County in Central Tibet. Her research is based on extensive fieldwork in this fishing village conducted during several trips to the area between 2003 and 2012. She also analyzes how fishermen in Southern and Central Tibet adapted to the geographical, ecological and cultural conditions of their environment.
