SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This book explores the interface between diverse social movement resistances to neoliberal globalisation and a range of critical theories in the discipline of International Relations (IR). The book is a powerful contribution to what the editors hope will be an ongoing dialogue between "the movement" and IR, between theory and practice, and between different critical theory perspectives."--Jacket.
