Nepal
In April 2006, Nepal experienced an extraordinary popular movement. The agenda of the movement was to restore democracy. People fought to regain the popular control over the government from the king.
Nepal is a third wave country. It won democracy in 1990. Post that, the king used to formally the head of the state but the real power was exercised by the elected representatives. The king Birendra accepted this transition from absolute monarchy to constitutional monarchy. Sadly, he and his entire family were massacred in 2001.
Bolivia
Bolivia is a relatively poorer and a small country in Latin America. The World Bank forced the government to let go their control over the municipal water supply. Their government sold off these rights to an MNC. This MNC immediately increased the prices to four times. To fight against this:
A new alliance of labour, human rights, and community leaders came together in January 2006. They formed a successful strike for four days in the city. Thereafter, the govt. agreed to negotiate but nothing happened.
In February, agitation was started again. Now, the police resorted to brutal repression.
People again organized a strike in April. This time the government imposed martial law.
However, people were adamant and forced the officials of MNC to leave the city. They even made the govt concede to all demands.
