英文摘要 | This article examines the use of a popular Chinese formulation, yifang shuitu yan-ghuo buliao yifangren (`the soil , water of a place cannot support the local peo-ple'), in China's poverty-alleviation resettlement by focusing on the case of the Tibet Autonomous Region. The official narrative that the formulation points to is that the native land of Tibetans living in `harsh' environments can no longer support them and cannot enable them to escape from `poverty'; they thus need to be resettled. The article shows that, while the degree to which the formulation holds true is debatable even from a government perspective, local officials find the authority embedded in the formulation, originating as it has from the central government, useful as a means of persuasion in getting Tibetans to agree to resettle and thus facilitating policy imple-mentation on the ground. This finding echoes earlier research on the usefulness of political language for authorities in China at different levels of the administration. |
