Document Summary
Significant groups across the globe that organize in order to presenbt a different vision of globalization another world is possible . It is tough and difficult but not nesc possible. Quite possible and likely citizens can reshape globalization around different values. What we are observing is an effort to link up grass root organizations resistance is emerging from diverse points. Some started 20-30 years ago planning run away plans for factories that moved out of canada and went to like mexico so unions and workers saw themselves affected and tried doing something about it. We saw efforts across borders trying to organize to oppose these free trade agreements. So you had trade unions, anti sweatshops, child labor, etc. Theres been the emergence of indigenous movements across the globe that no longer remain restricted to politics within their nations but have created transnational movements across the globe .
