Preferred term

resistance to economic globalization  

Definition

  • Popular resistance to economic globalization, while a phenomenon of long-standing duration in the global South, has only recently become a phenomenon of note in the northern hemisphere. The antiglobalization movement—or the movement for global social justice, as some activists would prefer to call it—became well known as a consequence of a series of large public protests of transnational economic policies and institutions.
