“…64). 4 Indeed, some intense wave strikes in the USA occurred during economic downturns: 1891-92, 1933-34 and 1937(Screpanti, 1987. 5 Furthermore, the labour market appears to exert a decreasing effect on strikes in the 1980s and 1990s, and does not appear to explain the paradox of the mid-1970s when both strike activity and unemployment were relatively high.…”

“…De igual forma, Shorter y Tilly (1974) señalan que las "crisis políticas" constituyen un tipo de condición previa para que se produzca una oleada de huelgas, aunque no sea por sí misma suficiente. Por tanto, la peculiaridad del caso español viene marcada por la coincidencia en un mismo periodo histórico del final de un ciclo largo en la actividad económica, momento en el que las mayores agitaciones tienden a estallar (Screpanti 1987), y un cambio de régimen político, lo que hizo que la explosión huelguística fuese de una magnitud extraordinaria. Así, durante esta etapa las huelgas se caracterizan, además de por la extraordinaria frecuencia, por su gran tamaño; lo que les confiere un gran componente político-expresivo y reflejan el incremento de la capacidad organizativa de los sindicatos para atraer un mayor número de trabajadores, ya sea de un centro aislado o de varios.…”

“…The segmentation of a period is typical for an analysis of a long cycle or wave. For instance, Screpanti (1987) employs the periodization of long cycles of industrial disputes and Kondratieff cycles in an effort to find a synchronization of these two cycles. For this purpose, visual aids such as graphs are often used, where peaks or troughs can be detected by visual inspection.…”
