ABSTRACT: Labor unions have played a crucial role in the US economy since the Industrial Revolution, but the recent Hollywood strikes have shown their evolution in the modern age. In this paper, I examine unions, strikes, and their historical origins, as well as the fundamental economic concepts underpinning labor unions and their effects on labor markets. I then analyze unions in the context of the entertainment industry, citing the recent Hollywood strikes as an example of how labor unions and strikes have evolved over time but remained fundamentally consistent in a unique industry and period of history.
