During the historic process that Tibet became an inalienable part of China,the Ming dynasty was one of the important phases.The central government of the Ming dynasty,especially Emperors Hongwu and Yongle paid significant attention to governing Tibet.They not only inherited the Yuan dynasty's rights in Tibet,but also made some adjustments.As for the principles and policy of governing Tibet in the Ming dynasty,The General History of Tibet(《西藏通史·松石宝串》),written by modem Tibetan scholar Chab-speltshe-brtan-phun-tshogs,et al.and Study on the Relations between the Tibetan Local Government and the Central Government since the Yuan Dynasty(《元以来西藏地方与中央政府关系研究》),edited by Rdo-rje-tshe-brtan,presented an enlightening discussion according to full and accurate Tibetan and Chinese historic materials.However,for the past half-century representative works on relations between the central government of the Ming dynasty and the Tibet local government have not sufficiently recognized as supporting China's sovereign status in Tibet.
