Abstract
The history of the Communist movement of Nepal has passed almost
70-years since the formation of the Communist Party of Nepal (CPN)
in 1949. During this period, the Communist movement of Nepal passes
through so many ups and downs, twists and turns, and defeats and
victories. It has taken different paths in course of its development. It
has experienced series of split and merger, which still continues. The
Maoist, a radical faction of the communist movement, led the armed
struggle for ten-years between 1996-2006 to seizes political power and
establish a “New People’s Democracy”. However, the deadly armed
struggle concluded in negotiation after 10-year and Maoists re-entered
in the competitive politics. As it entered in the competitive politics,
the CPN (Maoist), revised its ideological goal from “New People’s
Democracy” to “Democracy in the Twenty First Century”. After these
ideological change, it has entered in the vicious circle of split and
merger. In this context, this paper aims to understand the relations
between political dilemma and fraction taken place in the history of
Communist movement of Nepal in general and Maoist politics in
particular. On the basis of documentary analyses, this paper argues,
the whole Communist movement of Nepal including Maoists politics
suffered from ideological dilemma (between liberal and radical line)
that resulted internal contradiction within the movement leading
toward the series of split and generated the serious crisis to radical
politics in Nepal.

sometimes to the Right. In the course of revolution, if one
goes Left, then they are Leftists. If they swerve to the Right,
then they will be Rightists. We are walking on both legs.
Sometimes the left foot leads, sometimes the right foot is
forward. It is only by walking on both our feet that we
accomplished the ten years of struggle. (Prachanda, 2006,
p. 20)
The Maoists were moving to the Right. If there is need, we
will once again move to the Left. This is the revolutionary
strategy. (Ibid, p. 19)
We are not dogmatic communist and we are prepared to
change and debate our belief with anybody. (Washington
Post, 22 November 2006)
Karl Marx and Frederick Engels originally propounded the
modern concept of the communism in 1840s. However, it failed
to pick up any serious resistance in advanced capitalist countries
of Europe.
