The Right to Strike in Kuwait: International and National Perspectives

Abstract

This study discusses the most controversial right to strike by discerning its inclusion in public international law, in general, and international labour law, in particular.  For the first time, it searches the right to strike in the unclear Kuwaiti laws by trying to prove the existence of such right. It then answers the question of whether such organisation of the right to strike for both workers and employee in Kuwait's national law conforms to the relevant international law.
