Title: Linking Two Eras: The Anti-globalization Movement
Abstract: An understanding of the anti-globalization movement is crucial, as it links the ethos of the New Left with the movements of today. This chapter examines how globalization and 'neo-liberalism' were constructed as a point of reference for social and political movements around the turn of the century and how this gave rise to an international wave of mobilizations. It also shows how the inability of the new left to propose an actual alternative on the political and the economic level was also present in the anti-globalization movement, leading to its inability to achieve tangible results.
