The term "alter-globalization" or "alter-globalism" stems from a popular slogan of the movement “Another world is possible” which came out of the World Social Forum. The name "anti-globalization" having first been introduced in 1999, alter-globalization was preferred to highlight the fact that the movement was favorable to a form of globalization that would be different from the current neoliberal globalization.

There is not precise date for the beginning of the alter-globalization movement. It is rooted in the protest movements of the early 1980's in southern countries with the fight, first against Third World's debt and the IMF's structural adjustment plans, then against the WTO. Alter-globalization appears in part as a conjunction between different Western currents critical of capitalism, and anti-imperialist currents in the South.

The movement generally opposes economic liberalism and the financial globalization to promote a more social economy and redistribution of wealth. These demands are reflected in a search for alternatives, global and systemic, to the international order of finance and trade. Its culture is maked by the libertarian left tradition and/or radical ecology. The movement oscillates between reformism (for example the demand for the "Tobin Tax" advocated by the ATTAC organization at its fundation) and more radical views.

Alter-Globalism, Alter-Globalization or Alternative Globalization believes in global cooperation of the people, at the same time opposing economic globalization. He thinks that economic globalization will harm the workers and reduce civil rights. It is usually economically left-wing. He is anti-imperialist and supports global solidarity but wants to preserve native cultures as well.

History

The term "alter-globalism" or "alter-globalization" stems from a popular slogan of the movement “Another world is possible” which came out of the World Social Forum. The name "anti-globalism" having first been introduced in 1999, alter-globalism was preferred to highlight the fact that the movement was favorable to a form of globalization that would be different from the current neoliberal globalization.

There is no precise date for the beginning of the alter-globalist movement. It is rooted in the protest movements of the early 1980's in southern countries with the fight, first against Third World's debt and the IMF's structural adjustment plans, then against the WTO. Alter-globalism appears in part as a conjunction between different Western currents critical of capitalism, and anti-imperialist currents in the South.

Beliefs

The movement generally opposes economic liberalism and the financial globalization to promote a more social economy and redistribution of wealth. These demands are reflected in a search for alternatives, global and systemic, to the international order of finance and trade. Its culture is maked by the libertarian left tradition and/or radical ecology. The movement oscillates between reformism (for example the demand for the "Tobin Tax" advocated by the ATTAC organization at its fundation) and more radical views.

There are a number of positions and demands common to many alter-globalist organizations:

  • Challenging the internal organization, status and policies of global institutions, such as the World Trade Organization (WTO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the G7 and the World Bank.
  • Advocacy for economic justice
  • Advocacy for the autonomy of peoples
  • Advocacy for the democratization of institutions
  • Protecting the environment and stopping the overexploitation of resources
  • Protecting fundamental human rights
