Building on Catherine Eschle's work (2005), I examine of exclusionary dynamics might be in the work of transnational activist organizations rooted in Southeast Asia involved in knowledge creation towards collective action. Such exclusionary processes might be happening unintentionally but can be observed on three levels: first, at the theory level, at least within the mainstream literature on transnational activism, second at the level of case studies analyses of transnational coalitions and networks within Southeast Asia, and third at the level of the movements and coalition themselves. As much as transnational activism has become a relative fad, bringing together segments of the international relations literature together with those interested in contentious politics (for example, Tarrow, 2005; Bandy and Smith, 2004; Della Porta and als., 2006), a feminist epistemology has yet to emerge. Examining the formation of three regional activist organisations involved in research and advocacy against mainstream economic globalization, I wish to show how women and women's issues while being the subjects of advocacy remain excluded agents of critical reflections and feminism alien to theoretical engagement within the altermondialiste malestream. Such blind spot has as much to do with the challenges and difficulties of undertaking such task as much as with a certain a priori about the comparative nature of transnational actors, be it a network, an international non-government organization or a global movement.
