    The groups and individuals that represent
    what is known as the "anti-globalisation
    movement" began in the late twentieth-
    century. Their purpose was to combat the
    obalisation of corporate economic activity and
    : prevent the free trade among nations that
    ght result from such activity.
    Members of the anti-globalisation movement
    ave generally seeked to protect the world's
    ;pulation and ecosystem from what they believe
    : be the damaging effects of globalisation,
    jpport for human rights is another cornerstone
    c
    the anti-globalisation movement's platform,
    -ey advocate for labor rights, environmentalism,
    = Tiinism, freedom of migration, preservation of
    e cultures of indigenous peoples, biodiversity,
    . tural diversity, food safety, and ending or
    eforming capitalism. The movement itself
    "eludes diverse and som etim es opposing
    - losophies of the globalisation process, and
    corporates alternative visions, strategies and
    -actics. Generally speaking, protesters believe that
    the global financial institutions and agreements
    they make undermine local decision-making
    methods. Many governments and free trade
    institutions are seen as acting for the good only
    of multinational corporations (e.g. Microsoft,
    Monsanto, etc). These corporations are seen as
    having privileges that most human beings do not
    even have, such as moving freely across borders,
    extracting desired natural resources, and utilising
    a diversity of human resources. They are then
    able to move on after sometimes doing permanent
    damage to the environment, the culture or the
    economy, in a manner impossible for that nation's
    citizens to actually do themselves. Activists also
    claim that corporations impose a kind of "global
    monoculture".
    Common targets include the World Bank
    (WB), the International Monetary Fund (IMF),
    the Organisation for Economic Co-operation
    and Development (OECD) and the World Trade
    Organization (WTO). In light of the economic I f *
    gap between rich and poor countries, anti-
    globalists claim "free trade" will actually result
    in strengthening the power of industrialised
    nations.
    Activists of the movement argue that, if
    borders are opened to multinational corporations,
    they should be similarly opened to allow free
    and legal circulation and choice of residence for
    migrants and refugees. These activists tend to
    target organisations such as the International
    Organization for Migration and the Schengen
    Information System.
    In 2003, many of those involved in the
    movement showed wide opposition to the war
    in Iraq. Many participants were among those 11
    million or more protesters that on the weekend
    of the 15th of February participated in global
    protests against the Iraq war and were dubbed
    the "world's second superpower" by an editorial in the New York Times. The economic and military
    issues are closely linked in the eyes of many
    within the movement.
    Despite the lack of formal co-ordinating
    bodies, the movement manages to successfully
    organise large protests on a global basis, using
    information technology to spread information.
    One argument often made by the opponents
    of the anti-globalisation movement is that,
    although it protests about things that are
    widely recognised as serious problems, such
    as human rights violations, genocide and global
    warming, it rarely proposes detailed solutions.
    Some have also criticised the movement for
    engaging in violent or destructive protest. In
    general, movement leaders tend to encourage
    peaceful protest as the more productive way
    of getting attention and respect for their goals,
    although occasionally protests do turn violent.
