In this case study， a small group of Far·East textile union members， who had actively involved into the strike in May 1989， were the research subjects. Their reasons and action strategies motivating them to become involved in the strike were the focus of this investigation. Three major domains of the workers' strike experiences were proposed and articulated: (l)Thechange process in which research subjects chan· ged their positions of participation when interacting with the other social actors， such as the manager， government officers， union activists and col· lege tudents. (2)The understanding and action strategies that motivated their equential move and the research subjects' consciousness of collec· tive identity were described. (3)The relationship between the representa· tive form of the workers' collective power and the workers' experiences of being repressed in their daily work situation when the strike had failed and ended.
