About Democratisation in the Himalayas

Democratisation is a formidable task in the Himalayan region owing to its immense cultural heterogeneity. The process of democratisation has accentuated ethnic competition, assertion of identity and demand for ethnic homelands to protect, safeguard and promote political and development interests of various groups. The book argues that the play of ethnicity, the creation of political parties and interest groups, the emergence of social movements, the voice of protest and opposition do not indicate a crisis in democracy, but comprise the instruments by which the state is pushed towards reform, welfare, inclusive politics, and is obliged to listen to the people.
