During the June 2020 territorial dispute over Kalapani, India blamed tensions on a newly assertive Nepals deepening relations with China. But beyond the accusations and grandstanding, this reflects a new reality: the power equations in South Asia have been redrawn, to make space for China.Nepal did not turn northwards overnight. Its ties with China have deep historical roots built on Buddhism, dating to the early first millennium. While Indias unofficial 2015 blockade provided momentum to the rift with Delhi, Nepal has long wanted deeper ties with Beijing, to counteract Indias oppressive intimacy. With Chinas growing South Asian and global ambitions, Nepal now has a new primary bilateral partnerand Nepalis are forging a path towards modernity with its help, both in the remote borderlands and in the cities.All Roads Lead Northoffers a long view of Nepals foreign relations, today underpinned by Chinas world-power status. Sharing never- before-told stories about Tibetan guerrilla fighters, failed coup leaders and trans- Himalayan traders, Nepal analyst Amish Raj Mulmi examines the histories binding mountain communities together across the Sino-Nepali border. Part history, part journalistic account, Mulmis is a complex, compelling and rigorously researched study of a small country caught between two neighbourhood giants.
