Synopsis

This unit is designed to give students an understanding of government-
business  relations.   Whether they work  in  the  public  or  private
sectors  it  is  important  that graduates  appreciate  the  roles  of
business  and the state in Australia and the mechanisms by which  they
relate.   To this end the unit examines the legislative, economic  and
industrial relations environment in which business operates.  It  also
examines  key  issues such as government intervention  in  the  market
place, the differing objectives of the public and private sectors  and
the  impact  of international conditions on the Australian government-
business environment.
