NEPAL A COUNTRY IN TRANSITION

Created in 1768, Nepal is one
of the few countries to have escaped the colonial occupation. However, since
Nepal opened up to the modern world in 1951, it has faced a series of
political upheavals, followed by volatile constitutional experiments, leading
to increasing risks to its very basic structure.Nepal: A Country in
Transition analyses the crux of ongoing upheavals on multiple fronts, and
helps in a comprehensive understanding of the problems facing the country. A
group of eminent scholars discuss pragmatic strategies to deal with the many
crises and ensure Nepal’s national unity, sovereignty, territorial integrity
and ways to economic prosperity in the twenty-first century. An important
addition to the existing literature on the country, this book looks at Nepal
through multiple lenses, suggesting the way forward.
