Sammanfattning:The objective of this article is to analyse the Extrabajadores case of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACHR). On this occasion, the regional international court declared for the first time the direct and autonomous justiciability of the right to strike. This is an important step not only for the Inter-American human rights system, but also in view of the discussions on the subject within the ILO and other regional human rights systems. In this article, we recall the context in which this decision was adopted, and then we examine the reasoning of the IACHR, as well as the points of disagreement between the judges. Finally, we draw some general conclusions about the possible impact of this decision.
