In 1990 Nepal's Peoples Movement reduced King Birendra from an absolute ruler to a constitutional monarch. This book is an academic analysis of these events and places the "revolution" of 1990 within the context of Nepali history. The text examines the background to Nepal's recent upheavals as well as covering the country's early history and its continuing problems of national integration. The previous, unsuccessful, democratic experiment and the nature of monarchical rule are discussed within an analysis of Nepal's social and economic modernization. The evolution of political parties, Nepal's foreign relations and development issues - and the way in which these have moulded the political system - are explored in depth. Drawing on interviews with leading politicians and influential figures the author provides a comprehensive survey of the Himalayan Kingdom's political development.
