Review Quotes: 'This book is a penetrating and provocative study of new forms of social action in the age of globalization. It is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the new politics of resistance.' Barry K. Gills, University of Newcastle, UK 'With this book Watson demonstrates that not only does the politics of resistance to globalization provide a challenge to the practices of order in the real world, but that it should also provide critical challenges for those who analyze their contribution in International Relations.' Dr Jason Abbott, Nottingham Trent University, UK
