"In performance, Mongols evoke three distinct cultural eras of Mongolian society. Many are now engaging publicly in the diverse traditions of Old Mongolia that they practiced in private following the communist revolution of 1921, or that they are reinventing; some are perpetuating the Soviet-style transformation of those traditions introduced prior to 1990. by highlighting the sheer variety of repertories, Carole Pegg illustrates the rich diversity of Mongolia's peoples and performance arts through which Mongolian society is again being performed.".
