This means that we cannot be satisfied with defining transnational activists through the ways they think. The defining feature of transnationalism in this book is relational, and not cognitive. This emphasis on activism's relational structure means that even as they make transnational claims, transnational activists draw on the resources, the networks, and the opportunities in which they are embedded, and only then - if at all - on more distant transnational links. But we can no more sharply draw a line between domestic and international politics in studying transnational activism than we could ignore local politics in studying its national equivalent. Understanding the processes that link the local, the national and the international is the major undertaking of the book.Cambridge studies in contentious politics.InternationalismCoalitionsPolitical activistsTransnationalismInternationalism.Coalitions.Political activists.Transnationalism.303.48/2Tarrow Sidney G173226MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827520103321New transnational activism1751962UNINA
