The text is structured into six chapters, excluding the Introduction and Conclusion. The Introduction provides an overview of the key themes in the book as well as the research methodology employed in the study. The book begins by examining Nepal’s ethnic-regional dynamics, highlighting the dominance of Hill elites and the marginalisation of Janajati and Madhesi communities despite Constitutional promises of inclusivity. It traces the evolution of Janajati and Madhesi movements, detailing their historical roles, internal divisions, and struggles to consolidate political power. It also discusses the Maoist movement’s appropriation and neglect of Janajati demands, the challenges faced by Nepal’s Constituent Assemblies in drafting an inclusive Constitution, and the growing public disillusionment with the democratic process. Finally, it analyses external influences on Nepal’s internal politics.
