Abstract

The Anatomy of Resistance Campaigns (ARC) 2.0 dataset records the participation of 2,582 formal organizations in 32,131 protest events in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean from 1990 to 2017. These include what are called maximalist events, as well as reformist events. The data provide information on event demands, participation, and organization-features such as type, goals, birth date, year of termination, and interorganizational alliances. These data enable researchers to study the differential outcomes of protest episodes with or without organizational presence.
