Abstract
An attempt is made in this paper to analyse recent strike activities in India. It was found that inflationary conditions had significantly influenced the strike activity. The wage-productivity ratio had some influence, A crosssection analysis for inter-state and inter-industry variations in the strike activity was also attempted. It was found that employment, salaried staff-workers ratio, and wage-productivity ratio accounted for dispersion in the strike activity. The explanatory model developed by the author could substantially explain strike-proneness in Indian industry.
