Opposed to or acting against labor strikes; designed to prevent or counteract workers' strikes.
From anti- (against) + strike (from Old Norse strīka, to stroke or advance). This term became common in the 20th century during industrial labor conflicts.
Antistrike laws and tactics reveal the power struggle between workers and employers—management used the term to frame union actions as something to be opposed rather than understood!
