THE POPULAR MEDIA IMAGE OF THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY UNDER JOHN MAJOR AFTER THE 1992 ELECTION IS OF A MORE MERITOCRATIC AND LESS THATCHERITE PARTY AND GOVERNMENT. IN THIS ARTICLE THE AUTHORS TEST BOTH ASSUMPTIONS. THEIR DATABASE ON CONSERVATIVE MPS AND MINISTERS HAS BEEN USED TO UPDATE THE EARLIER WORK OF BURCH AND MORAN ON THE BROADER SOCIAL BASE REVEALED IN THE 1979-1983 COHORTS OF NEW CONSERVATIVE MPS. IN ADDITION, THEY EMPLOY NORTON'S TAXONOMY OF CONSERVATIVE MPS TO EVALUATE HOW THATCHERITE THE PERSONNEL OF MAJOR'S NEW GOVERNMENT REMAINS.

Over 20,000 people are living with HIV infection in Australia. From the early days of the epidemic general practitioners (GPs) have been closely involved in providing HIV care including antiretroviral therapy (ART). Training programs began in 1990 with about 200 GPs currently trained to provide ART. However there are limited data available on uptake and outcomes of GP HIV care. This review will present data on current GP involvement in providing HIV care as well as treatment outcomes. A Medline search was conducted using the terms general practice, HIV and Australia. Abstracts from local conferences were also reviewed. The major identified study of treatment uptake is HIV Futures [1], a national survey of approximately 1000 HIV+ve people performed every 2 years. Over the last 10 years this study consistently reports that about 50% of all HIV specific care is provided by GPs. One study describes an audit of 500 HIV+ve patients starting treatment in primary and hospital sites [2]. This found that there were comparable and high levels of adherence to guidelines on ART initiation in both general and specialist practice. A cohort of 168 patients followed for over 10 years in an Australian GP reported that 24% had been lost to follow‐up, 7% died and 68% continued in care with 98% receiving ART with 96% having an undetectable viral load (<400) [3]. These outcomes were similar to those reported in the long‐running national Australian HIV Observational Database (AHOD). Robust data show that about half of all HIV care in Australia is provided by GPs. Limited published data on adherence to guideline and treatment outcomes suggest comparable result in general practice versus specialist settings. GP care appears to be an acceptable and effective approach to HIV management although more research on treatment outcomes is needed.
This paper argues for a right to income based on a conception of the integrity of the individual. It first justifies the argument through the notion of social need developed by Hegel, contrasting that idea with the notion of subsistence in classical political economy and of needs and wants in the neoclassical economics. It then reexamines Locke's labor theory of property and argues that its intuitive strength actually relies on a similar notion of individual integrity, not on labor pre se. The paper concludes by applying this notion of rightful acquisition of property to the situation of production by capital and explores some policy implications of a right to income.
This article discusses educational services and programs provided by The New Mexico School for the Visually Handicapped. Many of these programs were being implemented before the enactment of EL. 94–142 and have been expanded since its passage.
