Building Transnational Networks tells the story of how a broad
group of civil society organizations came together to contest free
trade negotiations in the Americas. Based on research in Brazil,
Chile, Mexico, the United States, and Canada, it offers a full
hemispheric analysis of the creation of civil society networks as
they engaged in the politics of trade. The author demonstrates that
most effective transnational actors are the ones with strong
domestic roots and that 'southern' organizations occupy key nodes
in trade networks. The fragility of activist networks stems from
changes in the domestic political context as well as from
characteristics of the organizations, the networks, or the actions
they undertake. These findings advance and suggest new
understandings of transnational collective action.
