Content Description

Materials gathered by sociologist Dr. Patrick F. Gillham through his research on mass political protest movements. The bulk of the collection pertains to the history of the World Trade Organization (WTO) protests in Seattle 1999, with flyers, posters and other materials distributed by and documenting the organizations and causes represented at that event. Gillham attended this and other subsequent events, including 2000 and 2001 protests in Washington D.C. against globalization, international debt policy and other social justice issues, as a participant-observer. Much of this collection provided source material for Gillham's doctoral dissertation, as well as subsequent research, writing and teaching.
