Tradition and Change

Allen, Tracy H.. “Tibet: Landscape of Tradition and Change”. FOCUS on Geography. 2009. 23-29

In this article the Allen explores the changing Tibetan landscape and the relationship shared between the culture and the environment. In Buddhist practice there is a deep interrelated balance between humans and nature but as modernity sets in so does a change in practice. China is compelling this change of going global. Railways are increasing and tourists are continually increasing but at the expense of tradition and the environment.
