"Nepal: facets of Maoist Insurgency” makes an effort to do a comprehensive study on the ten-year-long Maoist insurgency. The papers included in the book are of diverse nature and scope with ideological background, origin, growth, dynamics, ethnicity, and perspectives. The Maoist agenda of restructuring the state, monarchy and the Maoists, insurgency and emergency, external dimension and both diagnostic and prognostic aspects have been highlighted. The novelty of the book lies in its encapsulation of all developments that are likely to shape the future of the country. The polarization into monarchism and democracy in which the Maoist and parties are now together under universally accepted liberal democracy has added a new dimension to the prospective roadmap of Nepali politics. The triumph of democracy has been vindicated in a country where democracy is being reinvented in order to make it inclusive and vibrant.
