英文摘要 | In 2018, the Tibet Autonomous Region began resettling pastoralists from high-altitude areas to newly built settlements in distant, lower-altitude farming locations under the extremely high-altitude ecological resettlement programme, with a stated dual purpose of environmental protection and improving pastoralist well-being. The programme is said to be based on a principle of government guidance and voluntary participation. However, despite its stated voluntary nature, the government reports a 100 per cent rate of agreement to participate. After examining the ecological rationales for resettlement and pastoralists' reluctance to move owing to livelihood concerns and attachment to homeland, the article examines how consent is achieved. Based on official documents and reports as well as semi-structured interviews with officials and pastoralists in Nagchu Municipality, the core target area for the programme, the article identifies a three-step thought-work oriented process - beginning with an initial survey, followed by group incentives and warnings and then individual incentives and warnings - which is deployed until pastoralists sign a resettlement agreement. The process illustrates the dialectical relationship between coercion and consent. |
