Transnational protest camps fragment by ideological affinity into separate villages

Evidence

On the French side, the Communist League’s outlook dominated the Intergalactic Village, while libertarians assembled a short distance away in the Anti-Capitalist Anti-War Alternative Village. On their side, activists of ATTAC [Association for a Tobin Tax to Aid Citizens] joined a number of non-governmental organizations, the French Communist Party and the Greens in fields adjacent to the landing strips of the Annemasse airport. On the Swiss side, a more heterogeneous campground formed on land near the Lausanne University campus. During the morning [of June 1], after blocking roads at dawn, two processions converged at the frontier.
