The study concentrates on Tibet's political development of sixteenth in general and seventeenth century in particular, as of, origin and growth of the "Institution of the Dalai Lama". Hence, substantial articulation of contributory factors and conditions of past in general and of said period in particular becomes inevitable. Analysis of required infrastructure, which existed, created and further developed. would be dealt through the historiopolítico developmental process.

Tibet's social status basically inherited through a mixture of nomandic tribalism. Later, her economic organization happened to be a feudal one; and its political structure was largely of monastic traditionalism from thirteenth century onwards. Feudalism corroborated with monastic tradionalism to with hold the reign of the state. Cohesion between the two, was so complete at most of the period, that it never allowed other power to enter into the power structure of the government. But the relationship took a turn in mid-seventeenth century and tilted towards monasticism. Henceforth, this relationship may be described as a corrogated sheet covering a roof, upperbend always to be of monastic order and lower trajectory everytime the feudalistic nobles, who happened to be supporters and suppliers to the monastic order.

The analysis of the political structure calls for an understanding of the institutional articulation and institutionalization. Initially, it was nobels who play the crucial role of the prime movers and moulders of the society and government at large.
