Abstract

This paper examines 'violence' in the Global North alterglobalization movement. It reviews major theories of violence and non-violence used by social movements and their analysts, indexes the kinds of movement events which get described as violence, and then analyzes the significance both of the movement's tactical experiences and of the discourse itself.
