Abstract

Guided by the important assertion that "governing the country must govern the borderland, and governing the borderland must first stabilize Xizang", this paper takes inland Xizang classes as the research object. From pedagogy and history dual perspectives, it sorts out the three-stage evolution since 1985, analyzes the transformation logic from "intelligence aid to Xizang" to "community consciousness cultivation", and discusses its educational mechanism. It finds that the program plays a key role in talent training, ethnic exchanges and national identity enhancement, providing a reference for the high-quality development of borderland ethnic education.
