Sažetak
This paper focuses on the heritage of miners strikes throughout the twentieth century in the Labin region in Istria beginning with workers’ dissatisfaction under Austro-Hungarian rule and which continued during the Labin Republic of 1921 as resistance to fascism. It continued during the Labin Republic of 1987 within the context of socialist self-management. The strike of 1987, in accordance with the practice of the time, would be referred to as a walkout in protest, whereas the journalists and researchers present at the time would mostly refer to it as a full-on strike. Various media covering these events unfolding at mining facilities also closely followed this difference in terminology. Radio broadcasts captured the fervour of the event and spoke with the strong language of a strike, while black and white photographs softened the perception of the overall situation and spoke in favour of a walkout. This paper therefore analyzes the different implications of the two medias with a comparative approach to the strike events that preceded them during the twentieth century.
