Vol. 4 No. 3 (2009)

This edition opens with a cultural comparison of drug use among students in the US and Republic of Korea. The second piece returns to the issue of Tibet. The main question of this article deals with the issue of whether Tibet was an independent entity or part of China during the period of the Republic of China (1911-49). The article is quite extensive but more or less sets the matter on the path which it now leads to. Again to remind the readers the volume from which this article was extracted was written and published by the current regime in China, Others may have a different view.
