Towards inclusive democracy

Institutions should help in navigating the transformative potential of the constitution.

Inclusive democracy is a multi-dimensional concept informed by the experiences of the 1990s and the first decade of the current millennium. Its theoretical underpinnings and political, social, economic, cultural and ecological implications are impressive. Takis Fotopoulos, a Greek political philosopher, calls inclusive democracy a ‘liberatory project’, but it is too early to conclude whether it is a liberatory project or another experiment that may fail Nepal.
