Reviews
I wholeheartedly recommend Collective Skill Formation in the Knowledge Economy. It is a rigorous account of how collective skill formation systems have adapted to the challenges of the knowledge economy, namely maintaining economic efficiency by matching the system's output with employer demands and inclusiveness in times of rising inequality. * Milan Thies, Social Policy and Administration *
