The 1891 shearers' strike is one of Australia's earliest and most important industrial disputes. The dispute was primarily between unionised and non-unionised wool workers. It resulted in the formation of large camps of striking workers, and minor instances of sabotage and violence on both sides. The strike was poorly timed, and when the union workers ran out of food, they were forced to come to terms. The outcome is credited as being one of the factors for the formation of the Australian Labor Party and the rise to power of a pro-Labor Party faction in the Australian Socialist League.

  • Der Schafscherer-Streik (englisch Shearer’s Strike oder auch Great Shearer’s Strike genannt) in Queensland in Australien fand im Jahre 1891 statt. Dieser Streik gilt als eines der bedeutendsten Ereignisse der frühen Arbeiterbewegung Australiens und dauerte vier Monate. Der Streik bildete einen Anlass zur späteren Gründung der Australian Labor Party, die bis zum heutigen Tage besteht. Im Verlauf des Streiks kam es am 1. Mai in den Orten Barcaldine mit 1.340 und in Charleville mit etwa 600 streikenden Schafscherern zu den ersten zwei 1.-Mai-Demonstrationen in Australien. (de)
