Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article analyses a particular case of interactions between "Southern" and "Northern" nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). It considers a sample of Colombian social movements and organizations concerned with victims of Colombian armed conflicts as well as some Spanish NGOs working in Colombia. Specifically, it considers relationships, communication processes, and organizational patterns, and identifies an emergent practice of "transnational political echolocation" understood in terms of mobilizing and grievance strategies within a transnational arena shaped by information and communication technologies. |
