Description Clearly visible changes of forms, symbolism and patterns of transnational collective mobilization and political protest have taken place in about last decade. The aim of this article is to introduce one of the key non-state collective actors of the present that represents these changes, i.e. the Global Justice Movement (GJM), through mapping major related debates. Basically, two principal axes of both academic and political discourse on GJMs are distinguished: first, there are debates on static or lasting attributes of the movement, and second, on the dynamics and processional character of the movement. This text focuses on dynamic approach to the study of collective action and strives to incorporate fundamental analytical and political arguments in respective fields of study.
