About this book deutschenglish

Since the beginning of the economic crisis in Europe, citizens from countries hit by the crisis have been faced with steep cuts effectuated by the national governments. This gave a new boost to political strikes. In Germany, however, political strikes are prohibited. This thesis examines the compatibility of this prohibition with International and EU Labour Law. The author assesses the case law of the different European courts and interprets the relevant norms of European, International and Domestic law.
