Abstract

In this chapter we analyse the oppositional field surrounding ADB and the strategies used by various opposition groups targeting this GGI. We begin with a brief description of the main features of this particular GGI and then turn to an analysis of the oppositional field. The next section contains an analysis of the political opportunity structure providing access and elite allies for some civil society opposition. Then follows a section describing and explaining different inside and outside strategies applied by various opposition actors targeting ADB. Finally, we offer some conclusions from this case study.
