After the completion of the reconciliation following the Maoist revolution, the Constitution of 2015 sought to primarily absorb the socio-economic and political outcomes of the long constituent process. The Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal challenges the classical concept of nation-state: the socio-cultural context is highly heterogeneous, presenting deep ethnic, religious and linguistic differences.

Abstract
After the completion of the reconciliation following the Maoist revolution, the Constitution of 2015 sought to primarily absorb the socio-economic and political outcomes of the long constituent process. The Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal challenges the classical concept of nation-state: the socio-cultural context is highly heterogeneous, presenting deep ethnic, religious and linguistic differences. Starting from the aforementioned assumptions, the chapter deals with the Nepalese constitutional framework, focusing on the federal scheme, the political system, the judiciary and the enforcement of rights.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
