Abstract: Brief 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.
