Transition period could be useful for any country if there were some visionary leaders who could manage the situation tactically and amicably. It is the time when all the latent ideas, motives, ideologies, biases, discriminations and the rest come to the surface. Everybody is loud during such period. It helps to alter or rewrite the modern history of the nation.
Take an example of Nepal, almost all the cultural, ethnic, social and professional groups have already articulated their demands and preferences. After years of suppression various ethnic groups have raised their voices. Various groups have used democratic methods to create the pressure on the government and society whereas some have taken the route of violence and arms.
This is the high time to recognize the individuals or groups that are working for the society or against. All the state mechanisms should be ready to assess the situation and act accordingly for such time could be a foundation for the creation of better society. The backward societies and people can use it as a springboard for their journey to the progress and prosperity.
But, alas! Not a single leader who could understand this is not seen around us. For a foreseeable future we are doomed to be in such situation. The same corrupt leaders will continue to rule over us. Democracy has become Shaw’s ‘Hot balloon’. We have no chance to go up because somebody has already booked the balloon for more than once in their lifetime.

Transition is the period that witnesses the clash between outdated thoughts and new emerging thoughts. During the period state's grip doesn't appear to be strong.Different agencies esp power centered ones manipulate the time and power at their disposal.All people wish the period could be productive, their dreams could get adressed, but history shows that the transition period in different countries has gone beyond the people's aspiration shattering the people's dream and has turned destructive. In the context of our country, as u have written, we need a strong visionary leader who could manevourly deal with the transition for peopls's favour. But we r not fortunate enought to get such leader who works for nation's betterment renouncing his personal and party's interest. Our situations has become more worse than Shaw describes. The hot air balloon comes once in five year symbolising elections but our predicament is not periodic but seems eternal..... leading to aporia........
ReplyDeleteI only wanna say that , the critical situation of the country can b gradually modified to the modal by the simple effort by we all pepole n its worthless to blame on any body...............
ReplyDeleteI just wanna say that the seed of the defered dream lies at the heart of our society.simply blaming some characters is a wild goose chase.studing the CORE REALITIES,it's high time to erase the civilizational faultlines.
ReplyDeleteYou are right in saying so. However, in such situation every society needs guidelines and good leadership. History has proved it to a greater extent. I would like to mention the Great American Revolution after which George Washington handled the administrative functions of the country and the team led by Thomas Jefferson wrote the constitution which was written in the due time. Next come South Africa. All successfully transitioned country has got some good and visionary leaders who did think about the 'people' of their nation.
