Resistance and revolution against neoliberalism has been global all the time, from Zapatista uprising to spread of Social Forums, General Assemblies etc.
This rejection of the traditional methods of the left is not simply confined to Mexico. In 1996 the Zapatistas organised an international encounter in Chiapas attended by some 3,000 activists from over 40 countries (including the author). The Encounter ended with the 2nd declaration of Reality (the final venue being the community of La Realidad) which asked, what next, what is it that we were seeking do to do?
"A new number in the useless enumeration of the numerous international orders?
A new scheme that calms and alleviates the anguish of a lack of recipes?
A global program for world revolution?"
This rhetorical rejection of the methods the left had used to organise internationaly, particularly in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th international, was followed by a suggested alternative:
"That we will make a collective network of all our particular struggles and resistance’s. An intercontinental network of resistance against neoliberalism, an intercontinental network of resistance for humanity.
This intercontinental network of resistance, recognising differences and acknowledging similarities, will search to find itself with other resistance’s around the world. This intercontinental network of resistance will be the medium in which distinct resistance’s may support one another. This intercontinental network of resistance is not an organising structure; it doesn’t have a central head or decision maker; it has no central command or hierarchies. We are the network, all of us who resist."[21]

We could say that 1st International never ended, or that we have returned to a new beginning of it, after learning from the mistakes of 2nd. etc.
