Description

The history of transnational social movements is a long one, and includes international labour solidarity, the abolitionist movement, the anti-colonial movement, the anti-apartheid movement - but also fascism. In recent times, global social justice activism, feminism, environmentalism, peace activism, First Nations' rights have added to the list - but so has India's Hindutva movement activism, Falun Gong, and a scatter of others. The presentation will initially focus upon discussing what is meant by 'transnational', 'social movement' and 'social movement media.'
