Abstract

The waves of globalization properly appeared on Nepal’s shores after the arrival of democracy in the 1990s, later than many other Asian countries. It has changed the socio-cultural, economic, and political aspects of Nepal. Education is light of life and considered as the basic human right in the constitution of Nepal. The most important purpose of education is the transformation of society toward a better future. The main objective of this paper is to find the dynamic relation between the internal responses and external demands, which helps to facilitate the rise of educational empires particularly in Nepal. This paper offers an understanding of the concept of globalization and evaluates its impact on the education of Kathmandu, Nepal.
