<P>This comprehensive study traces the transnationalization of activist networks, analyzing their changing compositions and characters and examining the roles played by the World Social Forum in this process. </P> <P></P> <P>Comparing four of the largest global networks targeting the 'neoliberal triumvirate' of the World Bank, the IMF and the World Trade Organization:</P> <UL> <P> <LI>the Jubilee anti-debt campaigners</LI> <P></P> <P> <LI>Via Campesina peasant farmers</LI> <P></P> <P> <LI>Our World Is Not For Sale</LI> <P></P> <P> <LI>and the anarchistic Peoples' Global Action.</LI> <P></P></UL> <P></P> <P>Written by a scholar-activist, the book highlights that despite their diversity, these collective actors follow a similar globalizing path and that networks in which solidarity is based on a shared identity perceived as threatened by neoliberal change are gaining strength. Social forums are depicted as a fertile ground to strengthen networks and a common ground for cooperative action among them, but also a battleground over the future of the forum process, the global anti-neoliberal struggle, and 'other possible worlds' in the making.</P> <P></P> <P><EM>Global Activism</EM> will appeal to students and scholars interested in globalization, international relations, IPE and social movements.</P>
