Nepal’s Federalism and the Pursuit of Deliberative Democracy
This book identifies the factors that either encourage or discourage participation and deliberation, thereby demonstrating the potential and reality of deliberative democracy in Nepal at the local level. Focusing on the local level planning process in two municipalities, Buddhabhumi and Dhanushadham, the book examines whether decentralized elements introduced by federalism encourage participation and deliberation or whether they continue to remain a challenge. Throughout this exploration, the author explores how the debate between “common good” and “self-interest” unfolds within the context of deliberative democracy in Nepal. A blend of empirical and theoretical investigation, this book addresses the concept of common good and self-interest in deliberative democracy in the context of unequal societies in South Asia.

Blood Against the Snows
This work provides a portrait of Nepal's doom-laden royal dynasty from its staggering expansion in the 18th century to the massacre in June 2001 - a sequence of events worthy of a Greek tragedy. Nepal, a fabulous country of sublime natural beauty, has a history inextricably mixed with kingship. There have been kings in its mountain valleys for millennia. Buddha Siddharta was born a Nepalese prince and the current dynasty traces its ancestry to the Rajput princes from Rajasthan. Nepal is the last Hindu kingdom in the world, in which the same traditions of kingship are practised now as in Vedic times. Kings are gods, and history, kingship and myth are culturally woven together. The current Shah dynasty created modern Nepal and was the complete focus of national identity.
Tourism and Nationalism in Nepal
This book explores the role of tourism in the expression of nationalism in Nepal. It investigates assemblage of images, emblems, and symbols of Nepali nationhood in various touristic representations and narratives from Nepali travellers and diasporic visitors to showcase how they express nationhood and stimulate a strong sentiment of national feeling and belonging. The book suggests that touristic settings in Nepal provide a venue for articulation of nation, first through internal ascription, that is, the construction of identity by citizens with the nation; and second, through the promotion of distinctive touristic identity through the assertion of national uniqueness and distinguishing the nation within the larger international community. Given the recent great political changes, post-conflict nation rebuilding, and development, Nepal offers a fascinating case study on the role of tourism and nationalism. This book will be of great interest to students, scholars, and professionals working in tourism and heritage studies, sociology, anthropology, geography, political science, and area studies, as well as those interested in the study of developing societies.
