The tensions between ethnic muslim uyghurs and the growing number of han chinese in xinjiang have recently increased, occasionally breaking out into violence. At the same time as being a potential troublespot for china, the province is of increasing strategic significance as china's gateway to central asia whose natural resources are of increasing importance to china. This book focuses in particular on what life is like in xinjiang for the diverse population that lives there. It offers important insights into the social, economic and political terrains of xinjiang, concentrating especially on how current trends in xinjiang are likely to develop in the future. In doing so it provides a broader understanding of the region and its peoples. |
