Bilateral free trade and investment agreements (FTAs) have proliferated since the breakdown of multilateral negotiations. In several countries, these newer agreements have elicited large movements and mobilizations, yet have attracted relatively little attention from transnational civil society networks concerned with global justice. This article suggests that there has frequently been a disconnect between major mobilizations against FTAs in a number of countries which have often brought together diverse sectors of societies, and international NGO and trade union networks, especially those located in North America and Europe which have generally been slow to address the bilateral deals. This article highlights some specific challenges for educating for mobilization against these agreements, and shares insights from grounded struggles against FTAs. It outlines growing connections and collaborations for resistance between movements, and views movements themselves as significant sources of conceptual resources for analysis and future resistance against FTAs.
