Nader, R.

...Inspired by the success of the CU, the British Consumers Association was founded in 1957 to carry out similar activities, followed by France, West Germany and other countries. In the United States, lawyer Ralph Nader (1934-) began a corporate whistle-blowing campaign in 1964, focusing on the issue of automobile safety, and achieved great success, playing a major role in developing a new type of consumer movement worldwide. During this time, the International Organization of Consumers' Unions (IOCU, headquartered in The Hague) was founded in 1960 as a federation of consumer groups from around the world, and as of 1983, 121 groups from 50 countries are members of the IOCU, which cooperates with the United Nations to contribute to the promotion of consumer movements around the world.
