Abstract

This article tests two conflicting theoretical views on the extent to which economic and political globalization makes contentious groups and social movements more globally oriented in their strategies. It focuses on a critical case in the globalization of activism: the Attac group, which forms part of the movement for global justice. By analyzing the demands, actions, and targets present in the group's communiques in France, Germany and Sweden, the analysis yields mixed conclusions about the globalization of protest. Although the global orientation of Attac is evident in the demands contained in such statements, the group appears highly centered at the national level through its choice of targets and alliances. Furthermore, in France and Germany there is a clear trend towards a more national focus among the demands made by the group.

在全球主义和实用主义之间:ATTAC在法国、德国和瑞典

本文测试了两种相互冲突的理论观点，即经济和政治全球化在多大程度上使有争议的群体和社会运动在其战略中更加面向全球。它关注的是全球化行动主义中的一个关键案例:Attac组织，它是全球正义运动的一部分。通过分析该组织在法国、德国和瑞典的公报中提出的要求、行动和目标，分析得出了关于抗议全球化的不同结论。尽管在这些声明中包含的要求中，Attac的全球定位是显而易见的，但通过对目标和联盟的选择，该组织似乎高度以国家层面为中心。此外，在法国和德国，该集团提出的要求中有一个明显的趋势，即更多地关注国家。

期刊介绍： Mobilization: An International Quarterly is the premier journal of research specializing in social movements, protests, insurgencies, revolutions, and other forms of contentious politics. Mobilization was first published in 1996 to fill the need for a scholarly review of research that focused exclusively with social movements, protest and collective action. Mobilization is fully peer-reviewed and widely indexed. A 2003 study, when Mobilization was published semiannually, showed that its citation index rate was 1.286, which placed it among the top ten sociology journals. Today, Mobilization is published four times a year, in March, June, September, and December. The editorial board is composed of thirty internationally recognized scholars from political science, sociology and social psychology. The goal of Mobilization is to provide a forum for global, scholarly dialogue. It is currently distributed to the top international research libraries and read by the most engaged scholars in the field. We hope that through its wide distribution, different research strategies and theoretical/conceptual approaches will be shared among the global community of social movement scholars, encouraging a collaborative process that will further the development of a cumulative social science.
