Globalization, Social Movements and the New Internationalisms

This text reinterprets the history of labor internationalism. It examines the old internationalism of labor and socialism, and the present one of the new radical-democratic social movements, such as that of women and feminism. It argues for a "new global solidarity" that relates to a globalized, informatized, complex and radicalized capitalist modernity. This new internationalism addresses multiple global social problems and democratic movements. It both learns from the social theories and provides a complement to them.
