Re: altermondialistes, altermondialisation, altermondialisme (Le Monde)

This makes great sense, and it definitely squares with my own understanding of the globalization issue.  It's a matter of the globalization of ALL versus the globalization ("mondialisation") of the few.

 

One other idea, might it also be correct to make this distinction and classification? --->

 

Globalization of the Few = Political Globalism

Globalization of All = [True] "Globalization"

 

It may not even be a good idea at all.  Still I welcome your thoughts on the notion.  Best!  (Luke R.)
