Victoria Carty’s research focuses on transnational social movements in the United States, Mexico and Panama and role of the internet in social mobilization. Her research has explored cross-border union organizing and anti-sweatshop movements in Latin America. Dr. Carty has written several journal articles and book chapters on this topic. Most recently, she published a book titled, Wired and Mobilizing: Social Movements, New Technology, and Electoral Politics (Routledge Press). She is also very interested in public sociology, specifically issues of immigration and homelessness in Orange County.
