AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This book is a history of Far Eastern international politics resulting from the independence movement of Outer Mongolia. A lengthy introduction by Owen Lattimore, who analyzes the course of Mongolian nationalism and revolution, precedes the author's description of modern Outer Mongolian society and its physical environment. The main body of the book traces the history of Mongolian relations with Russia, China, Japan and other interested powers, stressing events that followed the declaration of Mongolian independence in 1911. The final chapter discusses the international position of Outer Mongolia since the end of World War II. Included in the appendices are the 1940 Constitution of the Mongol People's Republic, brief biographical information of Mongol leaders, and a short chronology of political events.
