چکیده:
The present writing seeks to answer the question: what relationship and influence exists between new social movements, globalization, and the internet? The research findings indicate that new social movements and globalization have mutual effects on each other, such that many movements are mobilized in connection with global problems, and conversely, the possibility of establishing these exchanges and awareness of global problems has increased significantly through the second aspect of globalization; namely, the expansion of transnational communications. One of the most important information and communication technology tools is the internet, which has helped increase the power of new social movements. The Occupy Wall Street movement is one of those that can be explained based on structural changes stemming from the transformations of industrial capitalist societies, and among its indicators is the widespread use of information and communication technology, the internet, and especially virtual social networks, which have contributed significantly to the globalization of this movement. To conduct this research, a descriptive-analytical and explanatory method is utilized.

The Occupy Wall Street movement is one of them, which can be explained based on structural changes stemming from the transformations of industrial capitalist societies; among its indicators is the widespread use of information and communication technology, the internet, and especially virtual social networks, which have contributed significantly to the globalization of this movement.
Based on recent studies, at least four common signs and characteristics can be found in all movements, both old and new: First, movements form around one or more contradictions and divides in society; second, shared doctrines, ideas, and slogans must have been formed, and movement supporters should feel awareness, identity, and solidarity toward each other during the process of accepting and embracing these doctrines; third, relations among movement supporters do not rely solely on parties, institutions, and large bureaucratic organizations, but rather rely fundamentally on a wide network of informal relations among like-minded people, colleagues, and friends, and government institutions cannot easily prevent this wide network of collective relations from turning themselves around; fourthly, in all movements, there must be the possibility of a specific form of collective and political protest.
From the second half of the 1990s onwards, new social movements, non-governmental organizations, and socio-political groups, by being present in virtual space through the use of the internet and satellites, have mobilized citizens protesting against local, national, and global policies, and in this way, they have created serious challenges and oppositions for governments and international intergovernmental organizations.
