Preferred term

transnational activism  

Definition

  • Transnational activism can be defined as the mobilization of collective claims by actors located in more than one country and/or addressing more than one national government and/or international governmental organization or another international actor. An example is the Occupy Wall Street movement that began in the United States in 2011 in protest against global corporate capitalism and then became a feature of anticorporate protest in London, Rome, Berlin, and other cities around the world. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Studies; Activism, Transnational]
