Yes please do post the Industrial paper on xmca. I have some industrial
psychology students in my Psychology and Human Nature class who would be
especially interested to read it. We have covered the old "Human
Relations" based Hawthorne Research (of the 1920s -al la Baritz, 1960) and
have contrasted it with the more "transformative" methodology used by Luria
and Vygotsky. I agree that Activity Theory (in the Leontiev form) may be
valuable for Industrial relations research.
