The book examines the Indo-Nepal relations from a historical perspective and discusses that a part of the relation remains as a dark side, which has been less explored in the existing literature. Since a new triangular relation is emerging and developing between China, Nepal, and India, the book takes into account this new dimension and moves on to analyze the existing relation between India and Nepal, which has been colonial since the time of British East India Company, through the lens of hybrid colonialism for which the theoretical perspectives are drawn from the fields of colonialism, neocolonialism, dependency, democratic peace, and governmentalism. These theoretical lenses facilitate the author to discuss that the present days Indo-Nepal relation are hybrid in form since the political actors are democratic and their action seems to be legitimate in the legal framework. The discussions in the book offer a solid base to both nations, Nepal and India, to revisit their dominant relations, which they have already started, in order to construct a new and dynamic framework that is capable of developing their relationship that is democratic and just.
