520 _aFrom the laboratory of neoliberalism-popularly known as "globalization"-Latin America has transformed itself into a launching pad for resistance. As globalization began to spread it devastation, robust and throughtful opposition emerged in response-in the recovered factory movement of Argentina, in the presidential elections of indigenous leaders and radicals like Hugo Chavez and Evo Morales, against the privatization of water in Bolivia. Across Latin America, people are building social movements to take back control of their countries and their lives.
