Produktinformationen zu „Collective Skill Formation in Liberal Market Economies? “
This book compares vocational training in Australia, Ireland and the UK and analyses why social partner cooperation in training differs between cases. In-depth case studies show that this divergence is due to different coalitions between political parties, unions and employers in training reform politics.
Klappentext zu „Collective Skill Formation in Liberal Market Economies? “
The book captures the development and variety of vocational training institutions in Australia, Ireland and the United Kingdom since World War II from a comparative perspective. While all three countries have undertaken several attempts to reform training from classical craft apprenticeships towards modern dual apprenticeships, their reform processes have yielded divergent results: In the United Kingdom training became largely organized around a publicly financed "training market" with little influence for employers and unions in training politics. Conversely, the social partners were included in reform processes and the provision of training in Ireland and Australia, which enabled the development of dual apprenticeships. These differences, which have been largely neglected in political science and education studies alike, are explained by the interaction between partisan governments and organized interests. Only non-right governments managed to bring together employers and unions in training reforms, which was the main political prerequisite for the development of dual apprenticeships.
