Coalition Politics in Nepal: Stability Challenges and Governance Implications
Nepal's political landscape has been characterized by fragile coalition governments since the country's transition to a federal democratic republic. The proliferation of political parties and the absence of clear majority winners in elections have made coalition-building an essential but challenging aspect of Nepali politics.
This analysis examines the dynamics of coalition politics in Nepal: the constant negotiations between parties, the trade-offs between ideological positions and power-sharing arrangements, and how these factors impact policy continuity, governance effectiveness, and democratic accountability.
We explore historical patterns of coalition formation and dissolution, the role of smaller parties as kingmakers, and potential institutional reforms that could enhance governmental stability while preserving the democratic benefits of multi-party representation in Nepal's complex political ecosystem.
