520    In a deeply ethnographic appraisal, based on years of in 
       situ research, The Battle for Fortune looks at the rising 
       stakes of Tibetans' encounters with Chinese state-led 
       development projects in the early 2000s. The book builds 
       upon anthropology's qualitative approach to personhood, 
       power and space to rethink the premises and consequences 
       of economic development campaigns in China's multiethnic 
       northwestern province of Qinghai. Charlene Makley 
       considers Tibetans' encounters with development projects 
       as first and foremost a historically situated interpretive
       politics, in which people negotiate the presence or 
       absence of moral and authoritative persons and their 
       associated jurisdictions and powers. Because most Tibetans
       believe the active presence of deities and other invisible
       beings has been the ground of power, causation, and 
       fertile or fortunate landscapes, Makley also takes divine 
       beings seriously, refusing to relegate them to a separate,
       less consequential, "religious" or "premodern" world. The 
       Battle for Fortune, therefore challenges readers to grasp 
       the unique reality of Tibetans' values and fears in the 
       face of their marginalization in China. Makley uses this 
       approach to encourage a more multidimensional and dynamic 
       understanding of state-local relations than mainstream 
       accounts of development and unrest that portray Tibet and 
       China as a kind of yin-and-yang pair for models of 
       statehood and development in a new global order.
