This is an opinion article authored by Alexandra Manes, published in acores9.pt, which addresses the theme of the strike.
The author begins by defining the concept of the strike, describing it as a collective, voluntary and temporary interruption of work.
Alexandra Manes characterizes the strike as a manifestation of those who are fed up with searching for solutions to a world in despair, revealing a sense of frustration faced with the inability to find answers.
In her view, the strike constitutes one of the maximum expressions of the democratic regime, by allowing the population to exert collective pressure on those who hold decision-making power. It is presented as a fundamental right.
