This book is an eye-opening account of transnational advocacy, not
by environmental and rights groups, but by conservative activists.
Mobilizing around diverse issues, these networks challenge
progressive foes across borders and within institutions. In these
globalized battles, opponents struggle as much to advance their own
causes as to destroy their rivals. Deploying exclusionary
strategies, negative tactics and dissuasive ideas, they aim both to
make and unmake policy. In this work, Clifford Bob chronicles
combat over homosexuality and gun control in the UN, the Americas,
Europe and elsewhere. He investigates the 'Baptist-burqa' network
of conservative believers attacking gay rights, and the global gun
coalition blasting efforts to control firearms. Bob draws critical
conclusions about norms, activists and institutions, and his broad
findings extend beyond the culture wars. They will change how
campaigners fight, scholars study policy wars, and all of us think
about global politics.
