Thamel's festivals: Revitalizing Nepal’s tourism through culture
Yet beneath its commercial rhythm lies a vibrant world of intangible cultural heritage, realized by the festivals and rituals rooted in Newar traditions that shape Thamel’s identity beyond what tourists see on the surface.

When widowed young, they lack the skills and networks to assert their rights.

America’s Manufacturing Revival Risks Dethroning the Dollar
This issue echoes the Triffin Dilemma, a theory from the 1960s articulated by economist Robert Triffin. For a country’s currency to function as the world’s primary reserve, that nation must provide liquidity—typically through persistent trade deficits. But those same deficits, if excessive, can undermine faith in the currency.
