A 27 June 2013 Human Rights Watch report, based on field interviews, documenting China's mass rehousing and relocation of Tibetan farmers and herders under its Build a New Socialist Countryside program. Its central finding, cited here, is that over two million Tibetans had been rehoused since 2006, with resettlement frequently proceeding without genuine consultation or adequate compensation, in violation of international standards for lawful eviction.
