title: Nurses' strikes: a profession maturing.
abstract: Very few metropolitan areas have experienced nurses' strikes. Even fewer have contended with a second potential strike and aveted it. The Twin Cities experienced a nurses' strike in 1984. In May 1989, a similar strike was threatened. An agreement was reached less than 48 hours before the strike vote. This article analyzes the changes that occurred between the two strikes.
