A Nepalese Perspective on Global Issues is a response to critical issues beyond the bitter and often contesting debates of Nepalese intellectual classes about local politics, economics, society, development, peace, identity and inclusion. It illuminates a space where the mind of the author and international developments meet and interweave. It is notable for the skill with which the author’s reasoned judgments, feelings and attachment are synthesized to engage readers to view global events and trends in a succinct way.
