Part 2: Press Clippings, 1984-1998
Causing a veritable earthquake in Brazil's political landscape, the Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) swept into national prominence in the national elections of 2002. As a relatively new political party, the PT's remarkable electoral successes have solicited considerable attention from a wide variety of observers and analysts. The PT microfilm project aims to preserve the party's historical documents and make them accessible to researchers. The collection features material from the late 1970s, when labor and other social movements began to discuss the idea of building up a Workers' Party, to 2002, when the PT’s founder, Luís Ignacio Lula da Silva, was elected President of the Brazilian Republic.
