The rules and practices governing international finance are necessarily the product of political contestation and this research seeks to better understand this process. It draws on the work of Steven Lukes, Charles Lindblom, Karl Polanyi, Antonio Gramsci, John Ruggie, Margaret Keck, and Katherine Sikkink. This dissertation examines how the process of international/transnational contestation is changing. Two case studies, one on the transnational civil society based campaign for the cancellation of third world debt and the second on the role of the World Economic Forum in this contestation, are used to explore how non-state actors have mobilized to change the rules and practices governing international finance in general and debt cancellation in particular in the period ending with the Gleneagles G8 summit in 2005.

It draws on the work of Steven Lukes, Charles Lindblom, Karl Polanyi, Antonio Gramsci, John Ruggie, Margaret Keck, and Katherine Sikkink. This dissertation examines how the process of international/transnational contestation is changing. Two case studies, one on the transnational civil society based campaign for the cancellation of third world debt and the second on the role of the World Economic Forum in this contestation, are used to explore how non-state actors have mobilized to change the rules and practices governing international finance in general and debt cancellation in particular in the period ending with the Gleneagles G8 summit in 2005.
520 $a First, it argues that CSOs and NGOs redefined the global agenda with respect to finance and debt and produced a crisis in one elite discursive framework and a (partial) shift to another discursive framework which incorporated the demands of non-elite actors. Second, CSOs' and NGOs' activism and innovative political strategies changed the process of decision making to include alternative perspectives and actors. Third, this is part of a Polanyian double movement taking place at a transnational level in which the effects of international financial markets have produced a societal backlash. Finally, in the emerging context of transnational civil society based politics moral values and normative ideas - ideas about how the world should be - are a powerful force in shaping change, even with respect to such an opaque, highly technical and apparently empirically based system of rules and practices as those which govern international finance.
