Abstract

So much has been written in recent years about industrial buildings allowance that it would be a rare thing if anyone involved in property overlooked them. It is less widely realised, however, that a significant part of the expenditure on most modern buildings, both industrial and commercial, qualifies for capital allowances on plant and machinery. 1982 saw two important decisions of the House of Lords — Cole Brothers Ltd v Phillips and CIR v Scottish & Newcastle Breweries Ltd — in which the scope of what is included in the term ‘plant’ was reviewed (reports of these cases appear in this issue) and these and other interpretations by the courts will be considered here.

Abstract

The decision of Warner J last December in the twin tax cases of Griffiths v Jackson and Griffiths re Pearman has given rise to much confusion and not a little consternation, particularly coming so soon after that of Gittos v Barclay a few months earlier. All of these cases are concerned with the perennial question of whether furnished lettings can constitute a trade for tax purposes.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to show that relationships between academics and professionals can gain in organizational studies by prioritizing practical wisdom, which also benefits teaching.

Design/methodology/approach

To explore practical corollaries of Flyvbjerg's claim that social scientists are better equipped than natural scientists to produce phronesis or practical wisdom.

Findings

Practical wisdom emerges when social scientists interact with professionals. In (relational) practice, Organizational Science scientists and practitioners develop local knowledge that cannot be taught a priori but which develops bottom up and emerges from practice. Scientists and practitioners converse, exchange interpretations and perspectives, in specific contexts. Interaction and communication with OS practitioners seems for OS professionals to be a necessary human condition to develop phronesis.

Practical implications

Explores implications of Flyvberg's method to critically study discourse among OS scientists and between them and OS practitioners. Examine how discourse changes on the basis of an example of phronesis.

Originality/value

To provide a practical contribution to the theory/practice debate.

Abstract

Although unproven, many researchers have assumed that firm strategies remain constant over time, but such conclusions have resulted in conflicting generalizations. This study further extends the use of interpoint distance methodology to compare factor structures of marketing strategies of entrepreneurial technology firms at two points‐in‐time – 1989 and 1998.
