Abstract The Labrang Tibetan Buddhist Monastery in Amdo and its extended support community is one of the largest and most famous in Tibetan history. This crucially important and little-studied community is on ...he northeast corner of the Tibetan Plateau in modern Gansu Province, in close proximity to Chinese, Mongol, and Muslim populations. It is Tibetan, located in China; founded by Mongols, and associated with Muslims. Its wide-ranging Tibetan religious institutions are well established and serve as the foundation for the community's social and political infrastructures. The Labrang monastery's borderlands location, the prominence of its religious institutions, and its resilient nomadic and seminomadic identity have led to its growth and survival.show more
