This book traces the beginnings of democracy in the three Himalayan
kingdoms of Sikkim, Nepal and Bhutan. Charting the mobilisations
and political experimentations that took place in the former buffer
states under monarchies to establish democratic regimes, this book
investigates their varying degrees of success, and offers a
critical commentary on the consequent socio-political histories of
this region. The volume sheds light on the nuances of their
different geo-political contexts of the three Himalayan states,
while tracing the social origins of the movements. It also
undertakes a close analysis of the political participation and
leadership involved to understand their achievements and
limitations. A comprehensive analysis of a hitherto unexplored
chapter in South Asian history, it will be of an immense interest
to scholars and researchers of international relations, modern
history, sociology and social anthropology, politics, South Asian
studies, area studies, especially Nepal and Himalayan studies, as
well as policy makers and government think tanks.
