The Yes Men

“The Yes Men”

Guerilla organization the “Yes Men”, was created by several young men who formed together to create an alternative organization aiming to expose and highlight certain negative aspects of the American government and society. This unique and rare organization was inspired and initiated by President George W. Bush, it then developed into a un upheaval against WTO to raise issues about global work and social issues in today’s society that can influence and have significant effects on the future.


BUSH/WTO (How)


ISSUES (What)
Certain issues

A specific example of a WTO impersonation the “Yes Men” are able to convey is on a television show entitled “European Market Ways”. Andy goes onto the show impersonating an employee of the WTO and faces people like Barry Coates from World Development. The idea behind the concept is to portray all of the negative elements that WTO stands for and to embellish it to the point of ridicule.
