			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.library.unh.edu/images/news/clamshell.jpg" />The <a href="http://www.library.unh.edu/special/index.php/clamshell-alliance">Clamshell Alliance</a>, a loosely-knit coalition of antinuclear groups, was formed in July 1976 to protest the construction of a nuclear reactor in Seabrook, New Hampshire. Inspired by successful antinuclear citizen protests in Germany and Western Massachusetts, the Clams put a spotlight on the issue of nuclear power by means of public education and nonviolent civil disobedience, petitions and picket lines, rallies and site occupations. </p>
<p>Committed to a policy of inclusiveness and equality, giving equal weight to every voice, the Clams adopted - and eventually struggled with — consensus decision-making and they deliberately eschewed elected leaders. But perhaps their most important legacy was demonstrating that ordinary people have the right, the ability, and the responsibility to challenge and change the direction of energy policy in the United States. </p>
<p>In 2007 veterans of the Clamshell Alliance marked the 30th anniversary of its founding with the creation of a website <a href="http://www.clamshell-tvs.org/clamshell_history/index.html">To the Village Square: Nukes, Clams and Democracy</a>, which relates the story of the Clamshell Alliance and why it matters today.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.library.unh.edu/special/index.php/clamshell-alliance">Clamshell Alliance collection</a> contains primary source materials related to the functioning of the organization – correspondence, office records, committee minutes, press releases, financial information - as well as information pertaining to the Alliance&#8217;s interactions with the courts of New Hampshire.  There are also documents relating to the decommissioning of the Seabrook reactor.</p>
