Abstract: | This study discusses ways to perceive Nepal as a small power. To fulfill the same objective it explores the different aspects of small powers, and its characteristics. In order to perceive Nepal as a small power, and not a small state, this study explores Nepal's capabilities through the lens of small power theory. This study begins by discussing about power, small states, distinguish small states from small power, defines small powers conceptually and finally discusses how Nepal can be perceived as a small power. Then, the study discusses the challenges of Nepal as a small power, and concurrently explores the prospects of Nepal as a small power. This study identifies the research gap that there is no literature available on Nepal as a small power. To fulfill the same gap, this study aims to study Nepal as a small power or perceive Nepal as a small power. Some literatures have been produced on Nepal as a small state but, there is the lack of literature on Nepal as a small power. Thus this study aims to contribute on the literature or discourse regarding Nepal as a small power. Hence, this study tries to establish or perceive Nepal as a small power by discussing the challenges or weaknesses of Nepal and exploring the prospects of Nepal as a small power and finally tries to seek some ideas from some developed small powers and successful states.
