本文探讨了南方和北方团体之间跨国债务运动中的权力关系，特别关注备受瞩目的 2000 年禧年。它考察了南方和北方运动之间的各种断层线，并探讨了对这些困难的不同解释。它将跨国运动权力的这种关键关系概念化，作为一种由团结和冲突的持续相互作用驱动的动态关系，因为运动努力解决权力不平等，而世界秩序的等级结构反映在跨国运动中。其结论是，跨国债务运动涉及两种相互作用的斗争。跨国债务集团之间创建和维持强有力的共同事业的斗争与实现债务取消的斗争相互作用。这是因为债务运动使用的不同方法和言论造成了紧张局势，特别是在南北交界处。文章认为，声称“后主权”全球公民社会的出现还为时过早，因此统一的跨国运动是有问题的，并且可能受到特定政治和文化背景的影响，而不是代表所谓的普遍议程。
This article examines power relations within transnational debt campaigns between southern and northern groups, with a particular focus on the high profile Jubilee 2000. It examines various fault-lines between southern and northern campaigns, and explores different explanations for these difficulties. It conceptualises this crucial relationship for the power of transnational campaigns, as a dynamic one driven by the continual interaction of solidarity and conflict, as campaigns struggle to resolve the power inequalities, which are reflected into transnational campaigns by the hierarchical structuring of world order. It concludes that transnational debt campaigning involved two interacting struggles. The struggle to create, and maintain, a strong common cause across transnational debt groups, interacted with the struggle to achieve debt cancellation. This was due to the fact that the different methods and discourses used by debt campaigns generated tensions, particularly along the south/north interface. The article suggests that claims for the emergence of a ‘post-sovereign’ global civil society are premature, and therefore unitary transnational campaigns are problematic, and likely to be shaped by particular political and cultural contexts, rather than representing a claimed universal agenda.
