Number of Labour Disputes

DOI

This dataset provides the annual number of Labour conflicts in a number of countries since 1927. Data is derived from the ILO publications Yearbook of Labour Statistics and the digital publications on www.ilo.org. The Yearbooks up to 1969 were digitized by the IISH by manually entering data into a spreadsheet. The ultimate aim of the dataset is to cover the entire world for the period 1850-2010.

Please consult the working paper for a description of the data and sources.
