Geographies of Fear and Hope in the Nepalese Societies of Post~People`s Movement, 2006. The concept of geographies of fear and hope seeks to assess both claims of fear and hope from a critical and grounded geographical perspective. Nepali societies are fascinated by not only diversities in topography and climate, but also complexities and disparities generated due to the politico-socioeconomic-cultural and developmental processes. As a result, it is grounded for vivid fears and hopes unevenly across places and societies. The people’s movement, 2006 was grounded with the fear of insecure basic human rights, freedom and democracy, and with the sensible hopes of a peaceful-democratic-Nepal. The Comprehensive Peace Accord has intended to end the fears of the conflicts continued for a decade in the country and also anticipated hopes to accomplish the progressive restructuring of the state in order to solve the class-related, ethnic, regional and gender problems of the country. However, the anticipated hopes further dwindled into numerous forms and complexities. Currently, Nepal is in serious crisis with threats of its existence as an independent, indivisible, sovereign, secular, inclusive and democratic nation.
