yesThis paper brings together a number of theoretical and political interests we have
with the concept of global movements and the alter-globalisation, anticapitalist, and
social justice movements in particular (Chesters & Welsh, 2004, 2005, 2006). The
argument contained in this paper is that these movements are the emergent outcome
of complex processes of interaction, encounter and exchange facilitated and
mediated by new technologies of mobility and communication and they suggest the
emergence of a post-representational cultural politics qualitatively different from the
identity based social movements of the past
