Mobilizing around diverse issues, these networks challenge progressive foes across borders and within institutions. In these globalized battles, opponents struggle as much to advance their own causes as to destroy their rivals. Deploying exclusionary strategies, negative tactics and dissuasive ideas, they aim both to make and unmake policy. In this work, Clifford Bob chronicles combat over homosexuality and gun control in the UN, the Americas, Europe and elsewhere. He investigates the 'Baptist-burqa' network of conservative believers attacking gay rights, and the global gun coalition blasting efforts to control firearms. Bob draws critical conclusions about norms, activists and institutions, and his broad findings extend beyond the culture wars. They will change how campaigners fight, scholars study policy wars, and all of us think about global politics. 410 0$aCambridge studies in contentious politics. 517 3 $aThe Global Right Wing & the Clash of World Politics 606 $aNon-governmental organizations$xPolitical activity 606 $aRight and left (Political science)$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aPolitical activists$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aSocial conflict$xPolitical aspects 606 $aCulture and globalization 615 0$aNon-governmental organizations$xPolitical activity. 615 0$aRight and left (Political science)$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical activists$xHistory 615 0$aSocial conflict$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aCulture and globalization. 676 $a320.52 686 $aPOL000000$2bisacsh 700 $aBob$b Clifford$f1958-$01511732 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778951103321 996 $aThe global right wing and the clash of world politics$93745231 997 $aUNINA
