- Working Nation marked a pivotal shift in the public agenda. The policy framework articulated by Working Nation was built around the idea of 'competition'. This paper traces the linage of competition and it's roots in the thinking that shaped Working Nation. It is argued that working nation provided the model for how competition could be embedded in a range of policy developments.
