RE: ANTI-GLOBALISATION MOVEMENT A MISNOMER?

The "anti-globalization movement" most broadly construed obviously
includes social forces of the right. This is true almost by definition,
given that structurally anyone who is a nationalist, of whatever stripe,
is likely to oppose the aspects of globalization that impinge on national
sovereignty.
So, in the U.S. context, the "Buchanan coalition" (on the right) and the
"Nader coalition" (on the left) are both opposed to corporate
globalization, but they don't work together. In that organizational sense
they're not part of one movement.
But in terms of counterhegemonic struggle, much of the base of the
right-wing populists needs to be seen as potentially part of the left.
