The NC and UML just have to agree to a Maoist proposal to have Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal make a speech in parliament containing the following sentence: “The Maoists regard the president’s move on the army chief as unconstitutional…” But the UML and NC have said there is a legal issue with calling the president’s move “unconstitutional” because that would make the current coalition also unconstitutional. “That’s all that is holding things up,” the prime minister’s press adviser, Bishnu Rijal, told Nepali Times on Thursday.

  • REFLECTIONS a Student Magazine of Thames International College Issue 02 / 2017-18
    REFLECTIONS A Student Magazine of Thames International College Issue 02 / 2017-18 LIVE FOR TODAY BELLE FRANCE STRANGERS AGAIN MY EXPERIENCE ON TRAINING SESSION FEMINISM IN NEPAL 4 EDITOR Letter from the Editor It is with great pleasure that I introduce the second edition of the college magazine, Reflections. In this edition, we’ve created a platform where students can collaborate and be creative. This magazine also provides an opportunity for people to connect with each other through artistic expressions, whether in the form of essays and stories or sketches and graphic art. We have curated each page with that in mind. We’re hoping that with each segment of Reflections, we’ll be able to see our family in a clearer picture. Having to work on the magazine was a demanding task, but the entire team worked relentlessly to get the final product out. One thing that makes me happy is the amount of support that we received from the Thames family. We are very fortunate that the entire college came together for this second edition. I would like to specially commend the work done by Mr. Anish Bhatta who worked persistently and operated at his true potential. The magazine includes stories that were written by students as part of a short-term course, Reading and Writing Stories, facilitated by Mr. Niranjan Kunwar. Several weeks of intense discussions, challenging readings, critical analysis and a good many hours led to wonderful stories that deal with our society’s sensitive issues. Over the past two decades, the college has seen a lot of people come and go.

    About the Organisations Asian Development Bank The Asian Development Bank (ADB)’s work is aimed at improving the welfare of the people of the Asia and Pacific region, particularly for the 1.9 billion who live on less than $2 a day. Despite the success stories, Asia and Pacific remains home to two thirds of the world’s poor. ADB is a multilateral development finance institution owned by 64 members, 46 from the region and 18 from other parts of the globe. ADB’s vision is a region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries reduce poverty and improve their quality of life. ADB’s main instruments in providing help to its developing member countries are policy dialogues, loans, technical assistance, grants, guarantees, and equity investments. ADB’s annual lending volume is typically about $6 billion, with technical assistance provided usually totaling about $180 million a year. ADB’s headquarters is in Manila. It has 26 offices around the world. The organization has more than 2,000 employees from over 50 countries.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Work of Disaster: Events of Affliction, Care, and Intervention in Nepal A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology by Aidan Seale-Feldman 2018 Ó Copyright by Aidan Seale-Feldman 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Work of Disaster: Events of Affliction, Care, and Intervention in Nepal by Aidan Seale-Feldman Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Christopher J. Throop, Chair This dissertation offers an ethnographic account of mental health governance, psychosocial interventions, and forms of shared affliction in Nepal before and after the 2015 earthquakes. By thinking with theories of event and crisis through the lens of critical phenomenology, I ask the following questions: How can ethnography approach emergent phenomena? How does an affliction become knowable through a particular concept and made into an object of intervention? How is evidence for therapeutic efficacy made visible in the midst of a psychosocial encounter? What are the local/global historical, political, and socioeconomic forces that have brought about the emergence of mental health governance in Nepal? Based on 24 months of field research, I conducted participant observation, interviews, focus groups, household surveys, and followed psychosocial counselors in the field to respond to these questions. In the first part of the dissertation I outline the history of mental health governance in Nepal in relation to the emergence of the Global Mental Health movement. In the second part I examine cases of adolescent “mass hysteria” ii as they were conceptualized as “conversion disorder,” “hysteria,” chhopne, and bhut/pret, pissach laagne.
