Restructuring the State : Inclusive Nepal in the 21 Century introduces the reader to the intricacies and challenges of redesigning a state which appeared in the central Himalayas in 1768 when there were only about fifteen states on the worlds map and which is going to complete the quarter millennium of its existence in a decade. With the Maoists mainstreaming, the peaceful exit of Monarchy and smooth holding of the Constituent Assembly elections, history seems to be on march here where the world’s attention is now reveted. The pages inside describe what is at stake and how one can start the agenda of reinventing a new political order where every citizen has a place under the sun. (Jacket)
