The International Journal of INCLUSIVE DEMOCRACY, vol.1, no.4 (July 2005)


In view of the royal coup in Nepal, which seems to aim at replacing even the sort of "democracy" established in 1990 and returning the country to the days when the royal family ran the country as feudal Hindu gods, we publish below extracts from a paper by Krishna B. Bhattachan that was presented in an international seminar on "The Agenda of Transformation: Inclusion in Nepali democracy" in Kathmandu, Nepal on 24-26 April, 2003. The paper is revealing on the social- political- cultural- reasons that led to the present situation and argues in detail for a model of Inclusive Democracy in Nepal (not presented here).

This article is a revised version of a paper presented at a seminar on Ethnicity and Nation Building organized jointly by the Central Department of Sociology and Anthropology and The South Asia  Institute of the University of Heidelberg in Kathmandu, Nepal on December 22-23, 1995. We would  like to thank Prof. G. S. Nepali (Tribhuvan University) for his thoughtful inputs and impeccable  comments to enrich the earlier version of this article. Also, we benefited much from the lively  discussion on our paper presented in the seminar to further enrich our article.
