Summary/Abstract: The right to strike now belongs to the corpus of fundamental human rights, protected by national constitutions and laws, but also by many international political and legal documents. However, at the international level, despite the large number of sources of the right to strike, there are no unified rules about the necessary conditions for the legality of the strike. Also, the consequences which arise as a result of organizing and / or participating in (un)lawful strike differ from one to another legal system. When the strike is legitimate and when not; what kind of strikes are allowed and which are not; which are necessary conditions for organizing a strike; who may have legitimacy to activate this right and with which requirements; and, finally, which are labor-legal, civil-legal, criminal-legal, misdemeanor-legal and administrative-legal consequences of (un)lawful strike, represent questions to which, as a rule, the answer can be given only by specific national legislation.
