This book examines anti-corporate activism in the United States,
including analysis of anti-corporate challenges associated with
social movements as diverse as the Civil Rights Movement and the
Dolphin-Safe Tuna Movement. Using a unique dataset of protest
events in the United States, the book shows that anti-corporate
activism is primarily about corporate policies, products, and
negligence. Although activists have always been distrustful of
corporations and sought to change them, until the 1970s and 1980s,
this was primarily accomplished via seeking government regulation
of corporations or via organized labor. Sarah A. Soule traces the
shift brought about by deregulation and the decline in organized
labor, which prompted activists to target corporations directly,
often in combination with targeting the state. Using the
literatures on contentious and private politics, which are both
essential for understanding anti-corporate activism, the book
provides a nuanced understanding of the changing focal points of
activism directed at corporations.
