Foreign Aid and the making of Democracy in Nepal

About the Book

Foreign Aid and the making of Democracy in Nepal brings fresh insight and analytic rigor on the ambivalent contribution that international cooperation and the Nepalese polity has made to democracy and economic growth in Nepal. At a time when the Nepalese people are coping with unfinished institutions -- a democratic deficit --, alongside fiscal, social and economic deficits, and with the prevalent ineffectiveness of foreign aid, Nepal and its donors need now more than ever the kind of dispassionate, rigorous scholarship by Nepalese scholars found in this book.

The contributions in this book show policymakers, researchers and the public why they need to question conventional wisdom about development and democracy and demonstrate the value of undertaking systematic analysis before formulating policy and deciding development priorities.
