Abstract
Globalization is a phenomenon that appeared in the early 20th century. It refers to an increase in the interdependence of the economies, societies, cultures and politics. Globalization has disrupted the face of the World since its apparition. Indeed, international relations are now dominated by the specter of globalization. "Talking about globalization in terms of dialectic than in terms of homogenization or heterogenization is a much better way of looking at the contemporary situation". This phenomenon can be seen as the end of national identities and individual freedoms. This is why a reaction has not waited to appear: resistance. There exist various forms of resistance to globalization all over the World in order to defend different interests, privileges or rights. I will present a few examples of international actions to resist globalization with the aim of preserving a mentality (struggle against Americanization), a peaceful World (with international organizations against war), an economic independence (with local resistances), or an international recognition (with the International Women movement).
