Summary
This chapter considers the possibility of an anti-marketised global justice, which is conceptualised as ‘occupying’ global justice. After considering the question of ‘reform or revolution?’, the chapter discusses four tactics of anti-marketised global justice: first, unplugged global justice, which concerns the abandonment of marketised visual and linguistic habits; second, despectacularised global justice, which emphasises the slow and quiet, therefore finding the time and means to focus on context; third, unmasked global justice, which reveals stereotypes by means of irony and satire and has a theatrical element to it; and fourth, resistance global justice, which foregrounds agency and insists on an internationalism of solidarity. The tactics can be utilised for different struggles at different times – but they all share the same strategy: anti-imperialism built on internationalism and solidarity.
