Global Justice Movement
The term
Global Justice Movement is an alternative term to describe the loose collection of individuals and groups who advocate fair international trading rules and are critical of current institutions of global economic governance, such as the
World Trade Organization,
International Monetary Fund, and the
World Bank. The movement is often labelled the
anti-globalization movement by the mainstream media. However, as with the term
alter-globalization, "Global Justice Movement" rejects the term "anti-globalization", to indicate that it is not
globalization as such which is opposed, but unjust institutions of global governance. The term also indicates a
humanist,
anti-capitalist and
universalist perspective on globalization, to distinguish the movement from those opponents of globalization whose politics are based on a
conservative defence of
national sovereignty.
