This paper describes the class structure of the Australian workforce in terms of the theoretical approaches developed by Erik Olin Wright. The two class profiles presented and discussed are Wright's contradictory class location schema and his second schema based on the exploitation of assets. The distributions of class according to occupational group, gender and age are also discussed

ABSTRACTNursing is a contemporary occupation which has developed an explicit ‘professional project’. In the UK this has centred around an occupational ideology which stresses managerialism and credentialism. This occupational ideology comes into contradiction with older conceptions of professionalism which are couched in vocational terms. The vocational meaning is shown to be situated and reproduced in organizational locales which serve to undercut the managerialist and credentialist meanings. The focus of these cross‐cutting meanings is the interpretation of a ‘good nurse’. Using a ‘negotiated order’ perspective, focusing on ‘contradictions’, case study material suggests that there are important gaps between formal representations of the professionalism project and the actual, situated practice of ‘nursing’. For trainee nurses these gaps are particularly apparent. In day‐to‐day organizational life they have to negotiate contradictory conceptions encountered in the diverse locales of ward work and nurse training. In addition, the different meanings may be encountered even in the same locales.

New products are major contributors to company growth and profits and a key factor in business planning. Despite its importance, new product development has long been recognised as one of the riskiest activities of business enterprises with factors such as shorter product life cycles, capital shortages, government restrictions, fragmented markets, changing competitive environments and rapid technological change operating to maintain risks at high levels. To reduce the risks there needs to be greater understanding of the determinants of success and failure in this endeavour and continuing efforts to apply such knowledge in product innovation management. One area in need of more intensive investigation is the NEW PRODUCT PROCESS, the set of activities which move the product from the idea stage to the market launch of a product incorporating the idea.

The paper has two main objectives. First, it provides the background and rationale for Australia's introduction of the 150 per cent tax concession for IR&D in order to appreciate some of the problems of its implementation. Secondly, it assesses the effectiveness of the concession in promoting IR&D. The latter requires estimation of the impact of the concession on the user cost of IR&D and the responsiveness of the demand for IR&D to changes in its user cost.

Posteroanterior (PA) forces applied to the vertebrae are commonly used for the clinical assessment and treatment of vertebral column disorders. Three strategies for applying PA force in the thoracic and lumbar spine regions were studied. The components of the manipulative force which were directed along, and transverse to, the axis of the vertebra were calculated, and also the sagittal plane moment generated about the centre of the vertebra was determined. The three different strategies produced quite different loads on the vertebrae and all three strategies showed substantial variations across vertebral levels in at least one of the load components. © 1989.

In contrast to the Marxist view of society and leisure, with its basis of class division and conflict, analyses of leisure based on the pluralist defence of the liberal democratic market system seem to lack both a satisfactory classificatory system of society and an adequate sociological explanation of the dynamic forces shaping leisure and society. This leads in turn to an inadequate agenda for the study of leisure in its wider social context. This paper suggests that Weber’s concepts of status, status groups and lifestyle offer a way forward for pluralist analysis. It examines how research on ‘status politics’, or the ‘politics of lifestyle concern’, and existing research on lifestyle might be incorporated into such an approach. © 1989 E. and F.N. Spon Ltd.
