Women Resist Globalisation is a stimulating account of women's grassroots activism in two important areas: claims to livelihood, and to human rights. Looking at cases ranging from the British miners' strike to the role of gender in the Guatemalan peace process, the book documents activist challenges to the boundaries of work, environment, reproduction, community, democracy, and politics. The book chronicles diverse examples of resistance: women fighting for environmentalism and reproductive rights, mobilizing against poverty and racism, fighting inequalities imposed by structural adjustment, and campaigning for human rights.
