Sažetak
Among the South-Asian countries which have some of the most diverse and complex networks of inter-ethnic relations in the word, the case of the smallest Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan, situated between two enormous neighbours − India and China, is interesting not only as an example of an ethnic situation per se but is also very instructive in the study of inter-ethnic relations, both as a specificity and in comparative regard to other ethnic and similar processes in the world. Apart from providing basic historical data, the paper reviews the most important ethnic, as well as the relevant sociopolitical and economic characteristics of modern Bhutan. The author examines specifically the relationship between the indigenous milieu and the immigrant Nepalese minority, mainly in the light if the process of modernisation and the general socio-economic development of the Kingdom of Bhutan.
