When examining the role of social movements' attempts to influence international negotiations, most commentators have seen social movement activity within a simple frame and have concentrated on those groups that are engaging directly in the international policy process. Less attention has been given to others that are using different sorts of strategies. In fact, social movements adopt multi‐faceted approaches. Two different strategies to effect transformation in the world trading system are explored. On the one hand, social movements, principally NGOs, are lobbying the WTO directly. On the other hand, less institutionalised grassroots movements have taken a more confrontational attitude
