Paradise Lost examines the state-society relationships in Nepal and
demonstrates that the nature of the state, disjuncture between the
state and the society, and the rupture of the ideological hegemony
of the ruling class of Nepal have created a situation where
existing institutional frameworks are disintegrating and the state
is rapidly unraveling. Dr. Ali Riaz and Dr. Subho Basu analyze the
roles of ethnicity, identity, and deprivation, in engendering
discontent and the rise of the Maoists as a formidable political
force. Mindful of the geo-strategic importance of the country, this
book contextualizes these domestic developments within the
post-9/11 global world. Jointly authored by a political scientist
and a historian this book brings together structural and historical
perspectives. Written in an engaging language, Paradise Lost? will
appeal to political scientists, historians, sociologists, and those
interested in current affairs.
