First sentence: It has been twenty years since Shorter and Tilly's Strikes in France: 1830-1968 and Pizzorno's Lotte operaie e sindicato in Italia:1968-1972 were published-two books unsurpassed in the strike literature, even as the levels of industrial conflict reached during the turbulent 1960s remain unsurpassed, and not only in France and Italy.
