| Abstract: | A "shipping war" has broken out between two friendly neighbouring countries: Estonia (a rather pool land; liberated of Soviet occupation in 1991) and Finland (a wealthy one; independent since 1918). Led by their trade union the Finnish dockers boycott Estonian ships demanding for Estonian sailors the salary in the same range as that is in wealthy West-European countries. Estonian Sailors' Union finds that such a war is not for their better work- conditions but against their working possibilities. |
