Article Abstract:
There has been conflict throughout the history of dictionary-making in the UK.

Conflict in this sector has been heightened recently with the forthcoming launch of the New Oxford Dictionary of English, which is aimed at the highly competitive mid-range sector of the market. This dictionary will not mark the end of dictionary-making in the UK.

The launch of many alternative golf magazines could partly be undermining the market for golf magazines, and golf sites on the Internet could also be presenting competition. Emap has decided to relaunch GolfWorld, its top-of-the-range golfing title, and is attempting to reposition Today's Golfer and Fore!.
