Towards A Democratic Nepal

"Providing a comprehensive critique of the Constitution adopted in 1990, this book identifies it as an important factor in the exclusion of various ethnic and minority groups. It examines the causes for the lack of democratic consolidation in Nepal and outlines alternative institutions that can give voice to the various sociocultural groups in the country and strengthen democracy. Dr. Lawoti makes a case for setting up a new Constituent Assembly and for following the principle of self-determination to reform the polity. He also makes several important recommendations for the construction of an inclusive and democratic Nepal." "Highlighting a range of issues crucial to strengthening democracy in Nepal, this book will appeal to scholars and students of Nepal - especially its government, politics and society - and of South Asian studies. It will be of equal interest to policy makers, development agencies and journalists interested in Nepal."--BOOK JACKET.
