Schools and Work: Technical and Vocational Education in France Since the Third Republic
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In the half century since the World War II, France has developed from a conservative, semirural society in which the great majority of the population had only a primary education to a highly developed modern one with a remarkably welleducated and welltrained citizenry and labour force. Technical and vocational education, which before 1960 were confined to an enclave within the French education system, now permeate the entire system. Business and industry, long isolated from education, now play a major role in educational decision making. The French educational system today meets the demand for skilled personnel in almost all fields while maintaining a complement of general culture. The first book in English to treat the important subject of technical education in France, Schools and Work places technical education within the larger field of French public education, including the administrative and political backdrop, European industrial development, the nature of work, and global competitiveness.
