Letters to the EditorApology to Tim Harcourt
My apologies to Tim Harcourt for inadvertently placing him on the Right (see Workers Online http://workers.labor.net.au/118/c_historicalfeature_neale.html Poor self-editing on my part. My intention was to use his defence of positive interventionism to boost exports and the good employment approach of some exporters as a way of arguing for a comprehensive industry policy. The right see this as heresy, a position Tim does not hold. Neale Towart
