A Global Contract: The Case for World Citizenship - Center for Research on Globalization | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it

Bold proposals to prevent war and enlarge the scope of human freedom have been advanced for centuries.

Social Mobilization and the Transnational Protest Movement - Center for Research on Globalization

Social Mobilization and the Transnational Protest Movement - Center for Research on Globalization | Peer2Politics | Scoop.it

Triggered by the Arab Spring (LuXemburg 1/2011), a series of transnational movements, such as the Indignants and Occupy Wall Street, began gathering pace in 2011 in Europe, Turkey, the U.S., Chile and Brazil. The events are being driven by an urban precariat that is better educated than ever before. Time and again, spaces open up for protests and organizing. Time and again, events underway in one place begin echoing in another, transnational connections spring up and solidarity comes to the fore. This recently happened almost simultaneously in Athens (Völpel, 2013), in Istanbul’s Gezi Park (Tugal, 2013; Hammond/Angel, 2013;) and in other cities throughout Turkey and Brazil (Richmond, 2013; Dilger, 2013).
