The increasing unemployment, absence of government action in job creation, small market and lack of entrepreneurial opportunities are causing trouble to the Bhutanese population, especially youths, in recent years. The young and educated population is looking for greener pastures overseas and economy is surprisingly becoming remittance reliant. There are multiple factors within the country that needs government attention in order to improve the employment rate for university graduates. The country has such a small private sector that it hardly can create any new workplaces. The biggest employer is the public sector – that too is shrinking in recent years – in response to costs cutting measures. This study will focus on the historical structure of Bhutanese job market, current trends and future prospects and what it means for the Bhutanese economy in general.

Interpretation of poetry is generally based on qualitative analysis of semantics, figurative language and expression, and knowledge about the author and literary elements. Recent advancements in computer-based text processing allow us to analyse a large amount of text quantitatively. This paper presents two useful aspects of literary analysis. Firstly, it interprets the social, cultural, and contemporary aspects of Bhutanese people’s lives after resettlement represented through poetry. Secondly, it presents NLP as a methodological technique in analysing literary texts written in the Nepali language.

Bishwanath Chhetri (BNC) has been a leader of Bhutanese people since the conception of the Student Union of Bhutan (SUB) in 1988. He continued his activism in exile and the United States of America after the refugees were resettled in global north countries. He is actively involved in activities for preserving Bhutanese identity and history. He has inspired a generation of people with his words and actions.

The Bhutanese state has constructed their identity, domestically and internationally, against the Lhotshampa people, a broadly Hindu Bhutanese-Nepali people, who feature as the ‘Other’ in the process of identity construction. This group of marginalised people has been expelled from Bhutan through ethnic cleansing. The monarchy and ruling elite see the Lhotshampa as a threat to their power and have imposed policies designed to homogenise Bhutan. We explore this Bhutanese construction of identity.

This research attempts to explore secular aesthetics reflected in Punarwaspachhika Bhutani Nepali Kavita, an anthology of Nepali poems representing post-resettlement Bhutanese-Nepali literature published by Nepal Academy in 2022. Finding secular aesthetics in Bhutanese-Nepali literature is very rare. This qualitative research primarily explores secular aesthetics in the post-resettlement Bhutanese Nepali representative poems. The anthology has been assessed from the notion of hegemony and counter-hegemony and analysed their historicity.
本研究试图探索《Punarwaspachhika Bhutani Nepali Kavita》所反映的世俗美学，这是尼泊尔学院于2022年出版的一部尼泊尔诗歌选集，代表了重新安置后的不丹-尼泊尔文学。在不丹-尼泊尔文学中发现世俗美学是非常罕见的。本质性研究主要探讨安置后不丹尼泊尔人代表性诗歌中的世俗美学。从霸权和反霸权的概念对选集进行了评价，并分析了它们的历史性。
