Description

Book Synopsis
Provides a critical investigation of the ‘global justice movement’. Drawing upon three case studies – a peasant farmers’ network, a trade union network, and the social forum process – the authors argue that the role of key geographical concepts of space, place and scale are crucial to an understanding of the operational dynamics of these networks.
