Peasantry in Nepal
92 Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Peasantry in Kathmandu Valley and Its Southern Ridges 4.1 Introduction From ancient times, different societies of caste/ethnicity have been adopting various strategies for ac- quiring a better livelihood in Nepal. Agriculture was, and is, the main strategy. The predominant form of agriculture practised throughout the hilly area of the Nepal is crop farming, livestock and forestry at the subsistence level. Kathmandu valley including Lalitpur district is no exception. The making of handicrafts used to be the secondary occupation in the urban areas of the district. People in the montane and the rural part of the district was more dependent upon the forest resources for subsidiary income. Cutting firewood, making khuwa (solidified concentrated milk cream) and selling them in the cities was also a part of the livelihood for the peasants in rural areas. However, since the past few decades peasants/rural households who depended on subsistence farming have faced greater hardships in earning their livelihoods from farming alone due to rapid population growth and degradation of the natural resource base; mainly land and forest. As a result, they have to look for other alternatives to make living. With the development of local markets and road network, people started to give more emphasis to various nonfarm works as their secondary occupation that would not only support farming but also generate subsidiary cash income. Thus, undertaking nonfarm work has become a main strategy for a better livelihood in these regions. With the introduction of dairy farming along with credit and marketing support under the dairy development policy of the government, small scale peasant dairy farming has flourished in these montane regions. -

Urban Fringes: Squatter and Slum Settlements in The
URBAN FRINGES: SQUATTER AND SLUM SETTLEMENTS I N THE KATHMANDU VALLEY (NEPAL) Gcrard Toffin Introduction Over the last decades, rnig!"3tions and .l>opulatiOJl displaccments have produced new peri pheral spaces throughout the world, on the margins of national states and of urban territories. Among these si tes arc refugee ca mps. slums, squatter settlements, resettled enclaves. and so forth. At best, migrants live in buildi ngs or camps provided by their employers. Yct the key features of most of these spaces aTC th e non-permanent and transitory conditions, the • • vulnera bility. and Ihe poverty of the populations. For 'the sake of analysis, they can be called oUlp/aces, Le. neither belongi ng \0 the urban territory nor to ils outside space. Their uncertainty has a serious impact on educat ion, economic conditions, and the exercise of ci ti zenship rights (Agier 2008). More often than not the people settled there are hardly integrated in to global all-encompassing society and are considered urban or national pariahs. TIICY are implicatcd in national conflictual causes. and are casily manipulatcd oy politicalleadcrs and organisations. In South Asia, these spaces arc principally muliicastc. multiethnic and multilinguaL They mi x pcople from diffcrent geographical origins and stand in sharp contrast to the previous pre-industrial territories based mainly on kinship. ethni c group and caste hierarchy. A new soci al fabric is emerging from these settlements, characterised by: new collective identities; an achieved status as far as leaders arc concerned: social • bonds based on a common ncighbourhood and shared impoverished economic conditions; and lastly a vital role played by associative life. -

Pray for Nepal
Pray for Nepal Rasuwa Dhading Sindhupalchok Nuwakot Kathmandu Bhaktapur Lalitpur Kabhrepalanchok Bagmati, Lalitpur Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Thank-You for committing to join with us to pray for the well-being of every village in our wonderful country. Jesus modeled his love for every village when he was going from one city and village to another with his disciples. Next, Jesus would mentor his disciples to do the same by sending them out to all the villages. Later, he would monitor the work of the disciples and the 70 as they were sent out two-by-two to all the villages. (Luke 8-10) But, how can we pray for the 3,984 VDCs in our Country? In the time of Nehemiah, his brother brought him news that the walls of Jerusalem were torn down. The wall represented protection, safety, blessing, and a future. Nehemiah prayed, fasted, and repented for the sins of the people. God answered Nehemiah’s prayers. The huge task to re-build the walls became possible through God’s blessings, each person building in front of their own houses, and the builders continuing even in the face of great persecution. For us, each village is like a brick in the wall. Let us pray for every village so that there are no holes in the wall. Each person praying for the villages in their respective areas would ensure a systematic approach so that all the villages of the state would be covered in prayer. Some have asked, “How do you eat an Elephant?” (How do you work on a giant project?) Others have answered, “One bite at a time.” (One step at a time - in small pieces).
