Description:
The article is about social research in Nepal. The author explains that the basic objective of the paper is two fold. The first is to sketch certain dominant substantive and epistemological biases embedded in the institution and practice of social research in Nepal. The second is to put forward a few tentative suggestions towards making social research speak more directly on the limitations, hopes, and fears of the Nepali people. The article consists of five sections: preliminaries, the dominant substantive biases of social research, the dominant epistemological biases of social research, a few suggestions on research priority alternatives, and the relationship between social research and university teaching in Nepal.
