    Fundamentalisms as Global Social Movements
    in Globalizations , Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2008 ,  2008 ,  571-582
    In a recent comment in Globalizations, Grahame Thompson (2006) poses a definition of fundamentalism and its attendant processes, including the suggestion that fundamentalisms are individual level phenomena, not social movements. This turn leads to the suggestion that maintenance of liberal domestic and global orders might call for a strategy of re-territorialization. In this essay I suggest a more social definition of fundamentalisms to serve as the foundation for analysis, and the strategy of re-territorialization is not well supported from this perspective.
