'''Alter-Globalism''', '''Alter-Globalization''' or '''Alternative Globalization''' believes in [[File:Internation.png]] [[Internationalism|global cooperation]] of the people, at the same time opposing [[File:Anti-Globalism.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Globalism|economic globalization}}. He thinks that [[File:Globcap.png]] [[Globalism#Economic_Globalization|economic globalization]] will harm the workers and reduce [[File:Civlibert.png]] [[Civil Libertarianism|civil rights]]. It is usually [[File:Leftunity.png]] [[:Category:Left Unity|economically left-wing]]. He is [[File:Antiimp.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Imperialism|anti-imperialist}} and supports [[File:CosmoCosmoSocDem.png]] [[Cosmopolitanism|global solidarity]] but wants to preserve [[File:Native.png]] [[Indigenism|native cultures]] as well.

The term "alter-globalism" or "alter-globalization" stems from a popular slogan of the movement “Another world is possible” which came out of the World Social Forum. The name "anti-globalism" having first been introduced in 1999, alter-globalism was preferred to highlight the fact that the movement was favorable to a form of globalization that would be different from the current [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] [[Neoliberalism|neoliberal]] globalization.

There is no precise date for the beginning of the alter-globalist movement. It is rooted in the protest movements of the early 1980s in southern countries with the fight, first against Third World's debt and the IMF's structural adjustment plans, then against the WTO. Alter-globalism appears in part as a conjunction between different Western currents [[File:Anticap.png]] critical of capitalism, and [[File:Antiimp.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Imperialism|anti-imperialist}} currents in the South.

The movement generally opposes [[File:Econlib.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|economic liberalism]] and [[File:Neoliberalism-alt.png]] [[Neoliberalism|financial]] [[Globalism|globalization]] to promote a more [[File:LeftSocdem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social]] [[Socialism|economy]] [[File:Soc-h.png]] and redistribution of wealth. These demands are reflected in a search for alternatives, global and systemic, to the international order of finance and trade. Its culture is marked by the left tradition and/or radical ecology. The movement oscillates between [[File:Reform.png]] [[Reformism|reformism]] (for example the demand for the "Tobin Tax" advocated by the ATTAC organization at its foundation) and [[File:Lpop.png]] [[Left-Wing Populism|more radicalradi]][[Libertarian Socialism|cal views]] [[File:Libsoc.png]].
