"The Cult of Ulanhu /Ulan-fu:
History, Memory, and the Making of an Ethnic Hero" examines the life of
-Ulanhu: the most prominent Mongolian figure in Inner Mongolia, and indeed, the PRC. Ulanhu (1906-1988) was the founder of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and its leader until 1947. During the 1980s he served as vice president of China, becoming the highest-ranking minority in the PRC's government. A cult of ancestor/hero worship developed after his death out of the memory of what he accomplished for the Mongolian nation in China, a cult that was partially encouraged by the gevernment.
Who is Ulanhu? Is there any comprhensive reading material about him in English?

to the vicinity of the Keluren River in Outer Mongolia after his defeat by the army of Ulanhu, who later
became the first governor of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The descendents of Dorji Khan
and his followers still lived in the same area in Outer Mongolia today. In 1946, the Left Wing Banner
of Ujumchin was named East Ujumchin Banner. After the liberation, East Ujumchin Banner maintained
and developed its traditional animal husbandry. Since 1991 it has been the top county in China in
terms of live-stock number.
