Pursuing Democracy: Explaining Political Transitions In Nepal, Prakash Adhikari, James D. Timberlake Oct 2007

Pursuing Democracy: Explaining Political Transitions In Nepal, Prakash Adhikari, James D. Timberlake

Himalayan Research Papers Archive

Nepal has been struggling to consolidate a democratic political system for more than a half-century yet still does not have a working constitution. This paper is the first step in a larger research project examining regime transitions in Nepal. We review the existent comparative literature on democratization and authoritarian reversals in order to isolate some potential explanatory variables. We also focus on making valid descriptive inferences along these conceptual lines. What caused the failure of democracy in Nepal in the past? What are the future prospects for democratic consolidation? The literature has been divided along two lines, which we label …


"Retainer" Bureaucracy: An Impediment To The Process Of Democratic Governance In Nepal, Sucheta Pyakuryal Oct 2007

"Retainer" Bureaucracy: An Impediment To The Process Of Democratic Governance In Nepal, Sucheta Pyakuryal

Himalayan Research Papers Archive

The role of public bureaucracy has been one of the most discussed characteristics of a state, especially if the political system of a particular state is in a developing stage. In Nepal, up to 1990 the absolute power of monarchy was maintained through a traditional or a pre-modern bureaucracy typically comprised of the caste and class elites. Merit was a superficial criterion. According to Riggs (1994) when non-merit appointees are able to retain their status as bureaucrats, they typically become a powerful political force. Compounded by their want of administrative qualifications, they start forming self protective networks in order to …

Rural After-School Programs: Meeting The Needs Of At-Risk Youth And Their Families, Bethany L. Letiecq, Sandra J. Bailey Oct 2007

Rural After-School Programs: Meeting The Needs Of At-Risk Youth And Their Families, Bethany L. Letiecq, Sandra J. Bailey

Journal of Youth Development

Extant research has focused on out-of-school time among urban and suburban youth, yet there remains scant information on rural low-income youth and their families. This study examines the salience of after-school programs for rural youth. Using an ecological framework, we assess changes in youth behavior and skill acquisition based on reports from 47 youth attending after-school programs in two rural communities, along with their primary caregivers and teachers. Results indicate enhanced life skills and social behaviors among youth attendees. Implications for future research, programming, and policymaking are discussed.

Coping With Unreliable Water Supplies And Willingness To Pay For Improved Water Supplies In Kathmandu, Nepal, Hari Katuwal, Alok Bohara Oct 2007

Coping With Unreliable Water Supplies And Willingness To Pay For Improved Water Supplies In Kathmandu, Nepal, Hari Katuwal, Alok Bohara

Himalayan Research Papers Archive

Adequacy and quality are crucial for household water supply. One of the major problems with public utilities such as drinking water in developing countries is intermittent, insufficient and unreliable supply. Nepal is no exception to this. Water is not supplied round the clock, pressure is insufficient to pump it to the tap and the amount of water made available to the public, whatsoever, is not directly potable. To combat these problems, households engage in a variety of coping behaviors. Some of the major strategies for coping with intermittent and unreliable water supply are collecting, pumping, storing, treating and purchasing. This …
