Ding Zhen and the Myth of the True Khampa Man — Xu Jun

Summary:
While this is a human-interest story about Tibet, it is also significant for two other related reason.The first is that the Chinese are learning to capitalize their rich cultures, for example, through adventure tourism.The second is that they have their own "cowboy" myths, which some of the subcultures fit very well. This post is about one of them.Most Westerns are likely familiar with this through martial arts films, the Samurai films of Japan, and the Kung Fu films of China (mostly Hong Kong). This is a similar but different dimension.Sixth ToneDing Zhen and the Myth of the True Khampa ManXu Jun | professor at the Center for Tibetan Studies of Sichuan University
