ÂThis article provides an analysis of the resistance model and the proposals of World Social Forum (WSF). With Hardt and Negri’s multitude as a theoretical framework, this article found that as a free and plural movement that serves as a non-state and non-partisan medium, WSF succed to stimulate democratic and reflective debates, submit proposals, share experiences, and form an alliance for movements and organisations who also seek to achieve a democratic and just world. This article also identifies the demands and proposals put forward by the WSF, including those related to economic, political, identity/cultural, ecological problems as well as militarism and war. These proposals are manifestation of the alternative vision to neoliberal globalization offered by the WSF.
