"Right centrist"? Kettle, black.
At any rate, I don't think even the SL claims to *influence* the
struggle against globalization. Real currents that have *prioritized*
and actually *initiated* actions against globalization, as opposed to
just raising idle theoretical ping-pong matches about it, all have
defense of immigrants in the forefront or central place in their
campaigns. That's because they know that globalization forces workers
to immigrant which has been proven by the onslaught of structural
adjustment programs everywhere, even internally, like China, which has
150 million internal migrants.
These groups are the only ones struggling against Maastricht, etc.
And, even this is narrowed because many groups want a 'better' NAFTA
or a 'better' Maastrict as oppose to a real struggle against it.
