Asia's Striking Decade

from Continent of Resistance

Welcome to Season 2 of Continent of Resistance, a structured and research-driven series. In this introductory episode, we discuss the changes since their first season and introduce the key themes of the new series. We reflect on their motivations for examining the wave of labor strikes across Asia in the late 2000s and early 2010s, sparked by a curiosity about why so many countries experienced simultaneous waves of worker activism: what triggered these strike waves? And what lessons can be drawn for future labor organizing? (We thank Bayley Boecker for editing the series and voicing the episode introductions; and, we thank Dennis Arnold and Abu Mufakir for sharing their insights about Cambodia and Indonesia respectively)
