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.
