Himalayan Research Papers Archive

Nepal Study Center's research repository initiative --Himalayan Research Papers Archive-- is designed to showcase policy research work related to the Himalayan region, Nepal, and the countries in South Asia. The topics are broadly defined to cover development, democracy, conflict and the environment. Researchers from around the world are urged to upload their manuscripts and working papers. We consider development issues in a broad socio-economic perspective to include growth, poverty, knowledge economy, income distribution, education, environment, industrial and labor issues, trade, technology, regional development, health care, GIS analysis, urbanization, gender and ethnicity, and child labor. We also welcome papers on democracy, conflict resolution, state restructuring, and political transition.
