Synopsis

This unit is designed to give students an understanding of government-

it  is  important that graduates appreciate the roles of business  and
the  state  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 government- business environment.
