The discourse on social exclusion in Nepal
is very ideological, with some authors considering basically all Nepalis as
socially excluded except for male Bahuns of hill origin. This is obviously not
very useful for targeted economic and social interventions, and this book
attempts to provide statistical evidence on what population groups are de facto
excluded along a number of economic and social dimensions.
