The power of global civil society has become a new superpower in global order. Their existence complements the two prevoius transnationalism, namely state transnationalism and market transnationalism. State corporatism tends to produce power and coercion. While market transnationalism tends to make profit and exploitation. The social movement transnationalism advocate values. Will globalization be more democratic with the power of the third actor? Using the perspective of critical theory in international relations, this paper seeks to elaborate that transnational social movements will create state sovereignty deformation.
