法律地位是法律主体享受权利与承担义务的资格或表示法律主体享有权利和承担义务的相应程度。讨论近代西藏的法律地位的实质是要回答西藏是否为一个“独立国家”的问题。通过对近代发生的若干与西藏有关的史实的梳理分析，可以得出，近代西藏对内并不拥有国家意义上的管辖权，对外由于一直未得到国际社会的承认，自然也不享有相应的国家权利。因此，近代西藏并不具有“独立国家”的法律地位，西藏是由中国中央政府管辖下的中国组成部分之一。

Legal status means the legal entities have the capacity of enjoying the possession of right and bearing the obligation,meanwhile,it also means what the correspondent degree of the capacity of enjoying the possession of right and bearing the obligation that the legal entities have obtained. The essence of the discussion of the legal status of the Tibet Autonomous Region is to answer the question that wheth- er the Tibet Autonomous Region is an independent country. What we think,based on the analysis of the huge amounts of history events about the Tibet Autonomous Region that happened in the modern times, is that Tibet neither own the national jurisdiction nor accepted by the international society,naturally,it don＇t have the right of being one country. The conclusion is Tibet doesn＇t have legal status as an in- dependent country,but it is a part of China which is dominated by the Central Government of China.
