Protest by Other Means? Sex Workers, Social Movement Evolution and the Political Possibilities of Nonprofit Service Provision
PROTEST BY OTHER MEANS? SEX WORKERS, SOCIAL MOVEMENT EVOLUTION AND THE POLITICAL POSSIBILITIES OF NONPROFIT SERVICE PROVISION A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Samantha Ann Majic February 2010 © 2010 Samantha Ann Majic PROTEST BY OTHER MEANS? SEX WORKERS, SOCIAL MOVEMENT EVOLUTION AND THE POLITICAL POSSIBILITIES OF NONPROFIT SERVICE PROVISION Samantha Ann Majic, Ph. D. Cornell University 2010 Is it possible for service organizations formed from protest movements to maintain their radical commitments, even when they partner with state agencies? Engaging with the social movements, civic engagement, and nonprofit sector literatures, I focus on the American prostitutes’ rights movement and the emergence from it of the California Prevention and Education Project (CAL-PEP) and the St James Infirmary (SJI) in the San Francisco Bay Area. As flagship nonprofit health service organizations, the SJI and CAL-PEP illustrate how a social movement’s radical impulses and claims-making capacities are both maintained and restricted when they are institutionalized into service provision organizations that seek to work with state agencies in an era of neo- liberal politics. Based on participant-observational, interview-based and archival research, I contend that CAL-PEP and the SJI express their radical impulses within their organizations by maintaining prostitution as a legitimate occupational choice and involving sex workers in service provision and management. Granting agreements encouraging local, community-based health service provision and an emphasis on professional, credentialed service provision permit this expression of their radical impulses, even as charitable nonprofit tax status and granting agency requirements for data collection constrain their capacities to advocate for sex workers' rights beyond their organizations. -

Core Beyond Trafficking and Slavery Supporters About Beyond Trafficking and Slavery A wide range of activists, academics, trade unions, governments and NGOs are currently trying to understand and address forced labour, trafficking and slavery. Beyond Trafficking and Slavery (BTS) occupies a unique position within this larger movement, one which combines the rigour of academic scholarship with the clarity of journalism and the immediacy of political activism. It is an independent, not-for-prof- it marketplace of ideas that uses evidence-based advocacy to tackle the political, economic, and social root causes of global exploitation, vul- nerability and forced labour. It provides original analysis and special- ised knowledge on these issues to take public understanding beyond the sensationalism of many mainstream media depictions. -
