"Maoism" in Nepal

[Jim Devine]

While coming home from work, I heard the tail-end of a story on US National 
Public Radio, about a "Maoist" insurgency in Nepal, of all places. 
Interestingly, the reporter's chosen expert blamed the increase in economic 
inequality during the last 10 years of a regime of "multi-party democracy." 
Is this a rebellion against neoliberal democracy? does anyone know about this?
