The article attempts to explore the teaching of international relations in Nepal. The author argues that international relations has been taught in Nepal for the last 40 years or more, but has never emerged as an independent discipline on its own. In Nepal, international relations as a field of study in Tribhuvan University exists under the umbrella of the political science department. The article builds a strong case to support the establishment of a separate department of international relations in Tribhuvan University. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2006-10-09)
