前言

Foreword

1951年5月23日，《中央人民政府和西藏地方政府关于和平解放西藏办法的协议》（简称《十七条协议》）的签订，宣告西藏和平解放。从此，西藏人民永远摆脱了帝国主义的侵略和羁绊，与全国各族人民一道在祖国大家庭里走上了团结、进步、发展的光明大道。

On May 23, 1951, the Agreement of the Central People's Government and the Local Government of Tibet on Measures for the Peaceful Liberation of Tibet (the 17-Article Agreement) was signed. The people of Tibet broke free from the fetters of invading imperialism for good, embarking on a bright road of unity, progress and development with all the other ethnic groups in China.

以和平解放为起点，西藏各族人民在中国共产党的坚强领导下团结奋进，贯彻执行《十七条协议》，有力维护了国家主权、祖国统一和领土完整；进行民主改革，彻底废除了政教合一的封建农奴制，百万农奴翻身解放、当家作主，各族人民的根本利益得到保障；建立社会主义制度，实行民族区域自治，西藏社会制度实现了历史性跨越；扎实推进改革开放和现代化建设，极大解放和发展了社会生产力，极大改善了西藏各族人民生产生活条件。进入新时代，在以习近平同志为核心的党中央坚强领导下，在全国人民大力支持下，西藏脱贫攻坚全面胜利，社会大局更加稳定、经济文化更加繁荣、生态环境更加良好、人民生活更加幸福，一个崭新的社会主义新西藏呈现在世人面前。

Following the peaceful liberation, all the ethnic peoples of Tibet, united under the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), have worked together in implementing the 17-Article Agreement, and stood firm in safeguarding national sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity. Together, they have:

•carried out democratic reform to abolish Tibet's feudal theocratic serfdom, liberating millions of serfs and ensuring the fundamental interests of all ethnic groups in Tibet;

•established the socialist system and implemented regional ethnic autonomy in Tibet, bringing historic changes to Tibetan society; and

•pressed ahead with reform, opening up, and modernization, significantly unleashing the productive potential and improving the lives and working conditions of the people in Tibet.

In the new era, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Xi Jinping at the core and with the vigorous support of the whole country, Tibet has eradicated extreme poverty. Enjoying a stable social environment, economic and cultural prosperity, and a sound eco-environment, the people now lead better lives and live in contentment. A brand new socialist Tibet has taken shape.

值此西藏和平解放70周年之际，回顾历史进程、展示伟大成就，全面立体真实展现社会主义新西藏，有助于以事实驳斥境外一些势力散布的种种谎言，有助于国际社会正确认识西藏翻天覆地的历史巨变。

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of Tibet's peaceful liberation, we are publishing this white paper to review Tibet's history and achievements, and present a true and panoramic picture of the new socialist Tibet. This will help to counter the propaganda spread by a number of Western countries and their allies and provide the international community with a balanced account of the enormous transformation that has taken place in Tibet.
