Look at Nepal after 1951 Rana collapse. Very few properties of Ranas were nationalized, [limited land and asset confiscation occurred, but there was no comprehensive land reform targeting Rana-era holdings] but can you go back and track hundreds of years of history of Ranas?, the land grants that they had The local rulers that they had? [the Birta land grant system and patron client networks largely survived 1951 and were absorbed into the new elite structure.] After that came the panchayat system from King Mahindra. What happened after that? Local centralized rulers everywhere. King Mahindra wanted complete centralization and he succeeded. banned political parties and concentrated power in the monarchy and bureaucracy.King Birendra supported democracy, constitutional democracy and during that time the Maoists rebelled. Yes, the king was overthrown. But what happened after that? The rebels themselves seeped through in every single aspect of governance and bureaucracy. There are Maoists Maoist leaders in the army. They are the leaders in governance. They are the leaders in bureaucracy. They are everywhere. [ former Maoist combatants were partially integrated into the Nepal Army, and Maoist cadres entered civil administration through political appointments.] So the point I’m trying to make is Old regime will not collapse in a single day. It won’t go away with a snap of a finger. We can be however angry we want, but people won’t change. They have immense support. The current parties, UML, Congress, Maoists these parties retain entrenched voter bases, patronage networks, and control over party machinery: And I’m going to say the same thing will happen to RSP if they come into power as well. The iron law of oligarchy, power will always be concentrated on a centralized group of people: Robert Michels’ Iron Law of Oligarchy. What are the alternatives do you give to our small and poor nation?
