Abstract: The process of Europeanization, that is the growing importance of the European Union (EU) as a locus of political decision-making, affects its member states in an increasing number of policy areas and constitutes an important challenge for both institutional and noninstitutional political actors at both the national and European levels. Social movements, on the other hand, developed in the context of the nation state. Yet with the rise of transnational centers of power, movements too have become more transnational, directing their claims to organizations such as the WTO, the G8 and the EU.
