Strike is also the event after the final performance of a theatrical work at which the set is disassembled, lighting instruments and costumes are removed and stored, and the theatre space is returned to a generally "neutral" or "empty state," in preparation for the load-in of the next show.
Strikes usually result from conflicts of interest between the employer, who seeks to reduce costs, and employees, who seek higher wages (or in times of depression try to stop wage decreases), shorter hours, better working conditions, union recognition, and/or improved fringe benefits.
During the middle and late 1930s workers in the mass-production industries (especially in the automobile industry) perfected the technique of the sit-down, later declared illegal, which was designed to prevent strikebreaking; the workers remained on the premises while refusing to work.
Another cause of strikes has been the jurisdictional dispute to determine which union should be the bargaining agent for the employees.
