自2007年尼泊尔共和国成立以来,民族问题一直主导着尼泊尔的政治格局。几十年来,尼泊尔目睹了一系列农民反抗国家和土地贵族的叛乱。少数民族农民站在最前线,要求自治、尊严和结束国家暴力。然而,自20世纪80年代以来,“民族问题”成为一个发展问题,印第安人的发展理念巩固了民族精英和农民。最近,身份政治已成为一种占主导地位的意识形态力量,迅速瓦解了该国激进政治发展的进程。有趣的是,这场政治运动出现在一个特殊的历史时刻,尼泊尔政治受到最近毛派革命和长期国际发展历史的广泛影响。本文探讨了民族农民的各个方面,并认为,土著和身份政治的概念,加强了精英统治的非政治化的民族农民政治在尼泊尔。
The ethnic issue has dominated Nepal’s political landscapes since the birth of the Republic of Nepal in 2007. For decades, Nepal witnessed a series of peasant rebellions against the state and landed aristocrats. Ethnic peasants were at the forefront, demanding autonomy, dignity, and an end to state violence. Since the 1980s, however, the ‘ethnic question’ has become a development issue and the developmental idea of indigeneity has consolidated both ethnic elites and peasants. Recently, identity politics has become a dominant ideological force, rapidly unraveling the course of radical political developments in the country. Interestingly, this political movement emerged in a particular historical conjuncture where Nepali politics has been extensively shaped by the recent Maoist revolution and a long history of international development. This paper explores various aspects of ethnic peasantry and argues that the notions of indigeneity and identity politics have reinforced elite domination by depoliticizing ethnic peasant politics in Nepal.
