This book argues that ethnic politics have the potential to strengthen rather than destabilize democracy. It studies one of Nepal’s most significant social movements and examines the role it has played in the process of democratization in Nepal. It demonstrates that ethnic parties are not antithetical to democracy and that democratization can proceed in diverse and unexpected ways.
