Resisting the commodification of cremation practice at an urban crematorium in Nepal
In recent decades, scholars have highlighted that haphazard urbanisation, changing family structures, economic factors, environmental issues, and cremation capacity constraints in densely populated urban settings have driven the adoption of energy-efficient cremation technologies, such as electric crematoria and improved wooden pyres in Nepal.
