Land of the Peaceful ~ OK betong

«Bhutan, in particular, stands out as an extraordinary and successful example of royal, top-down, and managed democratization during the 2000s. Based on his Ph.D. dissertation at the University of Kyoto, in Japan, Dr. Sonam Kinga’s deeply researched book argues that, beyond foresight of a progressive leader, the Bhutanese monarchy also succeeded because its dynastic legitimacy was derived from a modern (and not feudal) contract with the Bhutanese people, in 1907.»
