最近一两年来,尼泊尔的政治局势波诡云谲,起伏跌宕,引人注目。2008年,尼泊尔的国体从君主制转向民主制,国号从尼泊尔王国改为尼泊尔联邦民主共和国。这个处于喜马拉雅山区的闭塞的内陆国家,开始发生深刻的历史变化,但由于主要政党之间的矛盾和冲突,它的民主化进程并非一帆风顺,而是一波三折。目前,尼泊尔正面临着巨大的动荡和发生分裂的危险。
<<Political change and turmoil in Nepal in the past year has aroused much attention throughout the world. The parliament of Nepal abolished monarchy and declared the country federal democratic republic on May 28,2008. Profound historic transformation is taking place. However,the process of building peace and democracy has been far from smooth as a result of the sharp contradiction and intense conflict between the Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist and the “democratic alliance” led by the Nepali Congress Party. The resignation of the Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal on May 4,2009 has ushered in a political crisis,which is still developing and has hindered the social and economic development of this poverty-stricken country.
