ABSTRACT: The purpose of this paper is to look at the discussions regarding the legitimacy of Tibet’s sovereignty as well as the nature of its government in exile as opposed to the Chinese claim over Tibet being an intrinsic part of ancient and present day China. To answer these questions, I performed an analysis of sources related to the history of Tibet, the role of the Dalai Lama, the events leading to the exile of the Dalai Lama and formation of the Tibetan Government-in-Exile. Scholarly journals were used to provide a context for which to frame the primary sources used, approximately 40 sources were obtained from online databases and archives. The analysis was conducted by following the six-step method set out by Braun and Clarke. First, 2–3 readings of different sources were conducted, varying in terms of their relative relevance and hence importance to the analysis, to familiarize oneself with the data. In this process, relevant data were extracted and organized to facilitate the generation of initial codes in Step Two. Through the comparison of the codes, the relevant data were grouped under various categories in Step Three. Step Four involved a critical step of matching the categories to the grouped data in order to ensure that the latter was representative. In Step Five, the categories were carefully defined or labelled to constitute themes. With the final step, the themes were situated within the context of the current literature.
