| Description: |
Based on a comparative analysis of education and work during political and labour market changes of the transition to post-communism, the authors argue that the social polarizations and erosion of the "dual system" of education and training in Eastern Germany may portend the future for the West. |
| Synopsis: |
In this book the authors build upon their earlier Anglo-German comparative research and upon surveys in the former German Democratic Republic and the 'new L-nder' of Germany. Based on personal accounts of the education and work experiences of those who have lived through the political and labour market changes of the transition to a post-communist society, the book presents a challenging analysis of the impact on personal lives and careers, and assesses the wider policy implications. Far from catching up with the rest of Germany, social polarizations and erosion of the traditional dual system of vocational education and training in Eastern Germany may portend the future for the West. The issues raised have considerable resonances with the problems and contradictions which have beset British education, training and labour market policy over the past decade. |
