Social Movement of English Civil Society in The Collapse of Rana Plaza Garment in Bangladesh

Abstract

Globalization is the process of interconnectedness. For example, an event in one part of the world will also affect other parts of the world. Each member of the society will be affected by an event that occurred in another society. This phenomenon can be seen in a civil society movement in England caused by an event outside their country, which was the tragedy of the Rana Plaza collapse in Bangladesh in 2013. The new social movement and transnational advocacy were the theoretical approaches used to analyze behavioural patterns in English civil society. This research used the qualitative method to reveal that civil society could be part of transnational advocacy within the similarity of the issue. They used campaigns and advocacy to fight for Rana Plaza workers' rights.
