This indispensable book offers a panorama of social resistances to
neoliberal globalization in the South. Writers and activists from
forty different countries or regions offer snapshots of the latest
mobilizations, from the anti-privatization groups in South Africa
and the anti-WTO campaign of peasants in India, to the indigenous
movement behind Evo Morales in Bolivia. The book focuses on a range
of diverse popular struggles that impact on democratic and
development process, yet receive little public attention or are
caricatured by mainstream media. It reveals collective tensions
throughout those societies whose material bases have been
profoundly shaken by a series of adjustments dictated by the canons
of the globalized economy. It is an essential guide to the latest
developments in social movements. Edited by Francois Polet of the
Centre Tricontinental, it includes contributions from key activists
and scholars such as Vinod Raina, Michel Warschawski, Maristella
Svampa and Mahaman Tidjani.
