Considering the rise of global political instability and subsequent
importance of new social movements, this cutting edge book examines
the relationship between the alter-globalization movement and
political power in Italy, Spain, and Greece. It argues that not
only is the movement anti-political, but that it operates within an
apolitical social milieu, as a ritualized holding pattern for
middle class youths that find themselves uncomfortably placed
between a receding state structure on the one hand, and a rising
informal economy on the other. Its ritual liminality allows
adherents to act revolutionary while assuring that their middle
class privileges remain intact. The author considers the social
ramifications of the movement at a time when Europe finds itself at
a political and economic crossroads, and offers specific and timely
case studies from the three southern European countries.
