"Della Porta has assembled a distinguished group of scholars who
have made great strides in illuminating the early phases of the
movement. The book includes especially keen analyses of the
movement against global capitalism, particularly in its European
manifestations." John D. McCarthy, Pennsylvania State University
"Della Porta has skillfully coordinated a comparative study in six
European countries and the US. Renowned scholars give testimony of
the movement in their countries. [This is] the first attempt to
document a genuine transnational movement." Bert Klandermans, Vrije
Universiteit, Amsterdam You G-8, we 6 billion!" So went the chant
at the international parade leading into the summit in Genoa,
Italy. The global justice movement has led to a new wave of
protest, building up transnational networks, inventing new
strategies of action, constructing new images of democracy, and
boldly asserting that "another world is possible". This book
examines all this and more with case studies drawn from seven
different countries, covering transnational networks and making
cross-national comparisons. Leading European and American scholars
analyze more than 300 organizations and 5,000 activists, looking at
mobilizations that bridge old and new movements and bring politics
back to the street. Contributors include: Massimiliano Andretta,
Angel Calle, Helene Combes, Donatella della Porta, Nina Eggert,
Marco Giugni, Jennifer Hadden, Manuel Jimenez, Raffaele Marchetti,
Lorenzo Mosca, Mario Pianta, Herbert Reiter, Christopher Rootes,
Dieter Rucht, Clare Saunders, Isabelle Sommier, Sidney Tarrow,
Simon Teune, Mundo Yang.
