This document summarizes a presentation about the political economy of education and training reforms in Western welfare states. It discusses how:
1) Political coalitions formed during critical post-WWII decades shaped the development of different education systems, including collective apprenticeship models in Germany and statist school-based models in Sweden.
2) These emerging paths created distinct "worlds of human capital formation" with consequences for social inequality, like higher youth unemployment and stratification in liberal market economies like the UK.
3) The interplay between partisan politics and socioeconomic institutions, like strong unions supporting school-based training in Sweden, explains why different skill formation regimes developed in different countries.
This document discusses the need for reforms to create a more social and democratic European Union. It argues that the current EU integration process overly favors market liberalization at the expense of social regulation and democracy. The institutional architecture of the EU multi-level system creates an imbalance that undermines fundamental social rights and weakens member states' social models. The document proposes using the concept of social democracy as a blueprint for reform. Specifically, it identifies three key policy areas for reform: establishing an "open" EU constitution, setting social minimum standards, and strengthening the fiscal capacities of member states.
Employment Relations in Germany and SwedenAndreea Nan
The document summarizes key aspects of employment relations in Germany and Sweden. It discusses:
1) The historical development and key actors within the German system, including trade unions, employers, government, and the dual system of co-determination and collective bargaining.
2) Key aspects of the Swedish tripartite system including trade unions, employers' organizations, and the government's role. It also discusses the Laval case ruling.
3) The effects of globalization and Europeanization on both countries, including issues like decentralization of bargaining and increasing labor flexibility.

how governments aim for their strategic goals. There is a need to take into account the type of economic system, structure of government and nature of the civil society
Labor relations systems vary significantly across countries and regions. Some key differences include:
- Canada has more protective unions that are growing, while U.S. unions are declining.
- Mexican unions have traditionally been tied to the ruling political party and faced corruption issues.
- German unions engage in co-determination, providing worker representation in management.
- Japanese companies emphasize lifetime employment and seniority-based compensation.
- Chinese and former Soviet unions prioritized maintaining productivity over worker interests.
- Recent decades saw increased union militancy in South Korea and Taiwan as democracy expanded.
The document discusses the origins and evolution of the modern state and differing views on its nature and role in society. It outlines Hegel and Marx's perspectives, with Marx arguing that the state serves the interests of the dominant social class rather than general interests. Subsequent debates have focused on disproving Marx's views of class divisions and the partisan role of the state. Current non-Marxist views see the state as neutral arbiter, while critics argue the bias of laws and policies towards private property and capital favor managements over workers.
This document summarizes a paper on the effects of public administration reforms in Western Europe. It discusses how traditional bureaucratic structures and employment conditions for civil servants have changed over time due to factors like new public management doctrines, budget constraints, and demands for more private sector practices. While many countries have adopted reforms, there is little empirical evidence about their actual outcomes and effects. The document concludes that further research is still needed to understand what reform approaches work best under different conditions and how to balance various objectives around administrative efficiency, ethics, and workforce issues.
Stakeholder organizations in higher education governance are increasingly influential actors at the European level. These include the European University Association (EUA), European Students' Union (ESU), European Association of Institutions in Higher Education (EURASHE), European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA), Education International (EI), and BusinessEurope. While they do not have voting rights, they significantly influence decision-making through consultation and responding to European Commission initiatives. The organizations represent different constituencies but work together on common issues like quality assurance. Research aims to analyze the policy positions of these groups over time to understand convergence and how European dynamics shape their stances.

The document also discusses criticisms of socialist economies from market economists.
This document discusses whether a single European model of capitalism will emerge. It summarizes that the UK and Germany have undergone some incremental changes in their market economies but are unlikely to dramatically change and converge into a single model due to factors like path dependency, political processes, and time lags between changes in political and economic institutions. While some characteristics of liberal and coordinated market economies have been adopted in each country to improve economic performance, their core models will persist due to these "non-convergent" changes.
The document summarizes a presentation on the political economy of higher education finance across advanced democracies. It finds that tuition and subsidy systems can be grouped into four "worlds" and explores explanations for how they emerged. A "time-sensitive partisan theory" argues that the sequence and duration of left-wing versus right-wing governments best explains the development of the different systems from identical post-WWII starting points. Quantitative analyses of expenditure data and party positions provide mixed support for the theory's predictions.
This document discusses the political economy of mass communication and its various definitions and approaches. It begins by defining political economy narrowly as the study of power relations influencing production, distribution, and consumption of resources. It then outlines classical, American, European, and Marxist traditions of political economy. The classical tradition focused on social change and the totality of social relations. The American tradition views political economy in terms of institutional and technological constraints benefiting corporations and governments. The European tradition emphasizes class power and struggle. Marxism places labor at the center and sees the media as determined by the economic base and disseminating the dominant ideology.
This document outlines a social science curriculum focused on government, economics, and world history for grades 9-12 and higher education. The objective is for learners to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of different political and economic systems like capitalism, socialism, and Marxism by identifying and comparing their main components. Students will be assessed based on completing assignments from primary source materials profiling historical and current figures supporting each system. A final project requires designing Facebook pages for a capitalist, Marxist, and socialist that accurately portray their biographies, views, affiliations, and posts in a creative format.

This document provides context for understanding the differences between communism and socialism. It discusses the origins of each ideology and how they differ in their views on private property, government control of the economy, and approaches to achieving their visions. While communism aims to abolish private property and classes through revolution, socialism allows some private property and seeks to achieve social reforms democratically. No country has fully achieved either pure communism or socialism in practice.
In order to prepare us for the historical context that.pdfstudy help
The document provides an overview of the key differences between communism and socialism. It explains that while both ideologies advocate for public rather than private ownership, communism involves a complete lack of private property and a centrally planned economy, whereas socialism allows some private property and a market-based economy. It also notes that communism aims to achieve its goals through violent revolution, whereas socialism seeks to enact reforms through democratic processes. No country has fully achieved a purely communist or socialist system in practice. Elements of socialism have been adopted to varying degrees in many countries through social programs and policies.

Q1. Given the similarities and differences of three contending theories (Marxism, Neoclassical and Keynesianism) that you have learned in the class, briefly analyze the key factors that contributed to the decline of economic systems under Marxism in the late 20th century in the countries of Eastern Europe and East Asia. Give specific examples as part of your answers
The Marxist theory’s most fundamental principle is that it, ‘… sought to transform capitalist Europe into a cooperative commonwealth of freethinkers, and often called “socialism” or “communism.” (p. 135). The theory was that everyone would work for the better good of the state and others. The major pillars of Marxism and production are culture, politics and the natural climate. Marxism created tension in these three spheres as Wolff and Resnick (2012) say,
This in turn implies that the economy is always in a state of tension and change. A change in climate will favor some kinds of production and distribution and inhibit others. Changing political trends will favor and inhibit certain kinds of production and distribution. Changing cultural patterns too will stimulate some kinds of production and distribution and stifle others. (p. 144)
Besides the tension in the three spheres, another reason why Marxism collapsed especially in Russia is due to mismanagement and corruption. Marxism states that the fundamental power is to be given to workers and overproduction is supposed to benefit them. However this was not the case in Russia whereby greedy heads of government took over the benefits that came with the laborer’s work.
Q2. In understanding the process of rapid transformation of economic systems in many nations in the world from the beginning of 1990s, briefly explain why freedom to choose the right theoretical foundations still do matter to develop an appropriate economic system for economic growth and better income distribution of a society.
The freedom to choose the right theoretical foundations to follow as a nation whether neoclassic, Marxism or Keynesian theory is fundamental because it affects how people in the country see the world. For example Americans who live in a capitalist society view the world differently to Russians who are socialists and communists. Wolff and Resnick (2012) say that,
It follows that individuals will likely act differently depending on which theory they use in thinking about the economic aspects of their lives and social surroundings. As with theories people use to understand other objects of interest. to them (love, nature, politics, etc.), economic theories have conscious and unconscious effects on how people think and act. (p. 348)
Due to the fact that the economic system that the people of a country will choose will affect their lives, they should be the ones to develop an economic system that they feel will be of most benefit to them.

The document summarizes the early critics of neoclassical economics, specifically the German historical school that emerged in the 1840s. It outlines four key principles of the historical school: 1) an evolutionary approach, 2) an emphasis on the positive role of government, 3) an inductive/historical approach, and 4) advocacy of conservative reform. It then discusses the older and younger historical schools in more detail and their criticisms of classical economics. Finally, it introduces the American institutionalist school led by Thorstein Veblen and seven of its key ideas.
1) The document discusses several perspectives on modernization including the modernization school, evolutionary theory, functionalist theory, and sociological, economic, and political approaches.
2) Rostow's stages of economic growth model proposes that countries progress through five stages from a traditional society to a high-mass consumption society: traditional, preconditions, take-off, drive to maturity, and high mass consumption.
3) Coleman's model of political modernization involves differentiation of political structures, secularization of political culture, and enhancement of a society's political capacity through increasing equality and specialization of roles.
This document discusses the role of labor studies in relation to current debates about the US labor movement. It argues that labor studies must serve both practical and theoretical roles to help the labor movement remain relevant in the short and long term. Practical applications include job training programs, while theoretical aspects involve social and labor movement theories. The document examines the history of labor studies in the US and South Africa, and provides an example of the labor nonprofit Brandworkers International, which bridges both roles through its organizing efforts. It concludes that a contemporary form of labor studies focusing on both short and long term issues can make the labor movement more effective.
The document outlines three courses that make up the first year of study for political science:
1. Introduction to Political Science introduces fundamental concepts like conflict, cooperation, interests and power and aims to educate students on political systems, theories and societal developments affecting politics. It focuses extensively on states, their formation and democratization.
2. History of the Modern World since 1750 provides historical context for political science, covering the period from 1750 to modern day. It examines the rise of modern states, capitalism, nationalism and world wars that shaped international politics.
3. Public Policy and Governance familiarizes students with the policy process and relationship between policy and politics. It explores challenges facing governance like participation, knowledge
This document discusses politics, inequality, and social policy from several perspectives:
1) Inequalities in societies are shaped by both economic structures and political conflicts. The welfare state aims to promote equality.
2) There are different models of social policy and redistribution strategies that aim to reduce inequality through universal benefits, earnings-related insurance, targeted benefits, or social services.
3) Ensuring social investment in areas like education and skills training can help prepare populations for changing economies, support current employment levels, and strengthen future tax bases amid challenges like population aging.
This document discusses the role of ideology in politics. It defines ideology as a system of political ideas developed for political action like governing a country or organizing a revolution. Ideologies provide programs for political action and frameworks for understanding issues of power, rights, and society. They differ based on views of human nature, the relationship between individuals and society, and concepts of equality. Political ideologies exist on a spectrum from left to right and are shaped by factors like time, social class, and periods of crisis. Major ideologies discussed include conservatism, liberalism, socialism, fascism, nationalism, and anarchism.
The document discusses the differences between capitalism and socialism. Capitalism believes the free market is most efficient and economic inequality is acceptable, while socialism believes the government should reduce inequality through programs for the poor. While the U.S. is considered capitalist, all developed countries have some socialist programs. An extreme form of socialism is communism.
The dynamics between expertise, parenting norms and politics kristina johnParentingCultureStudies
This document outlines a study comparing parenting discourses in media sources from the Netherlands and Germany. It discusses the research context, definitions used, and hypotheses about how parenting norms and policy changes may be reflected differently in each country's media based on factors like historical influences, the role of expertise, integration of mothers in the workforce, activation of parents, the role of fathers, and emphasis on child well-being over time. The researchers aim to analyze news articles from quality newspapers in both countries to understand evolving cultural norms around parenting.
This document provides an overview of the history and models of educational policy in Estonian higher education. It discusses four main periods:
1) Academia Gustaviana (1632-1710) which followed regulations from Sweden but also enjoyed some academic freedoms similar to medieval universities.
2) Kaiserliche Universität zu Dorpat (1802-1889) which had a dual nature under Russian and German control and balanced state influence with some institutional autonomy.
3) Tartu University of the Republic of Estonia (1919-1940) where the state supported national education development but also diverse educational institutions.
4) Higher education during Soviet occupation (1940-1986) was strictly controlled by the

University Civic Engagement: What Does It Mean to Be An Engaged University?ExCID
Civic engagement refers to the ways citizens participate in their community to improve conditions or shape the future. It means promoting quality of life through political and non-political processes. An engaged citizen has the ability, agency, and opportunity to address public issues. Universities are expected to integrate into their communities, care about local issues, and exchange knowledge to educate socially responsible citizens. The basic assumption is that universities have public responsibility for community development.
Shadow legal education has emerged in Norway as an informal system that supplements formal legal education. It is a win-win arrangement where law firms and offices provide traineeships, coaching, and other learning opportunities to students. This helps students prepare for their careers and helps firms recruit graduates. Though informal, shadow legal education imitates formal education and coordinates with the university. It addresses the transition from higher education to work while benefiting all stakeholders. More research is needed into similar shadow systems that may exist in other fields.

How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17Celine George
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

ExCID seminar with Prof. Marius Busemeyer
1. Skills and inequality:
The political economy of education and
training reforms in Western welfare states
Marius R. Busemeyer
University of Konstanz
ExCID Academic Seminar Series
University of Oslo, April 23, 2015
2. Introduction
“Education is special.” (Harold Wilensky 1975: 3)
Overarching question:
Political and institutional linkages between education and the welfare
state
Core argument:
Institutional choices during critical juncture of postwar decades…
…shape development paths of education and training systems
…have consequences for contemporary patterns of social inequality
3. Overview
1. Motivation: Worlds of human capital formation
2. Theoretical building blocks: Historical institutionalism, power
resources and varieties of capitalism
3. Three case studies: Germany, Sweden and England (UK)
4. Implications for social inequality
5. Conclusions
4. Motivation: Worlds of human capital formation
- Starting point: (European) education systems quite similar in mid
20th century:
Elitist higher education
Stratified secondary school systems
Remnants of apprenticeship training, usually in the hands of
employers and unions
- Today: different education and training regimes that appear to stable
in the long-term
Worlds of human capital formation, related to welfare state regimes
Research question: Which factors explain the emergence of these
different regimes?
5. Characteristics of skill formation regimes
- Def. “skill formation regime”: self-reinforcing configuration of
institutions at the intersection between labor markets and education
and training systems
Focus on upper and post-secondary education: relationship
between general academic education and vocational education and
training
Role of the state vs. private actors (households, market) in provision
and financing of education
8. Theoretical building blocks (I)
Historical institutionalism (Streeck, Thelen, Pierson,…):
- Existing institutions (policy legacies) strongly influence
contemporary patterns of policy-making
- Path dependencies develop over time: significant path changes
become less likely because of “lock-in” effects
- Path change is possible during “critical junctures”: “punctuated
equilibrium”-model of institutional change
- Recent research: significant institutional change can also come
about in incremental steps (Streeck/Thelen)
9. Theoretical building blocks (II)
Power resources/partisan theory (Esping-Andersen, Korpi, Stephens):
- Balance of power between the organized representatives of socio-
economic classes (“Capital vs. Labor”) shape patterns of institutional
change
- Arenas of political conflict:
Within parliament/government role of political parties
In the labor market arenas organized interests, e.g. unions,
employers’ associations, etc.
Who is in power in government has an influence on patterns of
policy-making
10. Theoretical building blocks (III)
“Varieties of capitalism” (Hall, Soskice, Iversen):
- Institutionalist theory: existing institutions shape firms’ decisions on
investment, skill formation, innovation etc. (“strategy follows
structure”)
- Two different “varieties of capitalism” which are self-reinforcing long-
term equilibria:
Liberal market economies: coordination between firms via
market mechanism
Coordinated market economies: coordination via non-market
mechanisms, i.e. associations
11. Education and training in the VoC framework
- Education and training institutions important part of institutional
framework, shaping product market strategies and innovation
patterns
dominance of general academic education (“general skills”) in
LMEs encourages radical innovation
dominance of VET (“specific or occupational skills”) in CMEs
encourages incremental innovation
Different skill formation regimes create different economic pay-offs
Long-term survival of VET as an alternative to academic education
depends on the existence of cross-class coalitions between
employers and unions (as is common in CMEs)
12. Combining theories: Partisan politics in context
Partisan theory:
Partisan composition of governments matters, in particular during
critical junctures of policy development.
Three extensions:
- Parties do not only care about policy output, but also about process
Difference between Conservatives and Christian democrats
- Interplay between partisan forces and socio-economic context
Varieties of Capitalism shape menu of feasible policy options
- Focus on long-term effects of partisanship rather than short-term
effects

coalitions
14. Sweden: Political coalitions
Dominant coalitions in the postwar era:
- Labor market arena: cross-class compromise between unions and
employers after the Saltsjöbaden agreement
- Political arena: “red-green” coalition between social democrats and
centrist Farmers’ Party
- Hegemonial position of social democrats in government
- Related to privileged access of trade unions to policy-making arena
15. Sweden: Reforms
Long-term project: establishing the principle of comprehensive
education in all sectors of the education system
1950s: experimental phase
1962: introduction of comprehensive school up to grade 9
(lower secondary education)
1969/1972: comprehensivation of upper secondary education:
integration of VET into general secondary school
system
1977 comprehensivation of higher education
1980s/1990s: various attempts to increase employer
involvement, largely failed
Institutionalization of statist skill formation regime
16. Germany: Political coalitions
Dominant coalitions in the postwar era:
- Labor market arena: emerging cross-class coalition between
employers and unions, but still fragile in the 1950s
Collective VET system depends on, but also helps to consolidate
cross-class cooperation
- Political arena:
Until 1969: dominant position of the Christian democrats
But: informal (and between 1966-69 formal) Grand Coalition
between social and Christian democrats
supports “politics of mediation” and cross-class compromise, but
employers’ interests more influential due to dominant Christian
democrats
17. Germany: Reforms
- 1969 Berufsbildungsgesetz:
statutory framework for firm-based dual training
institutionalization of corporatist governance structure
but: principle of employer autonomy is preserved
- 1970s: failure of reform attempts to transform the collective model
into a more statist (i.e. Scandinavian) regime type
Balance of power more in favor of employers and Christian
democrats
- Until recently, limited success in transforming segregated secondary
school system or improving the permeability between VET and HE
Institutionalization of skill formation regime with firm-based dual
apprenticeship model at its core
18. England (UK): Political coalitions
Dominant coalitions in the postwar era:
- Changing government majorities between Labour and
Conservatives
- In 1950s and 1960s: consensus-oriented policy-making, but then
increasing partisan conflict, in particular in the 1970s and 1980s
- Labor market arena:
no sustainable cross-class coalition between employers and
unions
dominance of craft-based unions over industry-based unions
government attempts of establishing corporatist framework fail
19. England (UK): Reforms
- Gradual introduction of comprehensive secondary education, but
with private component
- Attempts to establish corporatist framework for VET:
1964 Industrial Training Act
1973 Employment and Training Act
- but: no long-term cross-class consensus on VET, collective
institutions dismantled by Thatcher government in the 1980s
- 1980s: decline of traditional apprenticeship in industry,
transformation of VET into labor market social policy program
- Shift in balance of power in VET: dominance of employer interests,
unions get crowded out
- 1990s and after: repeated attempts to resuscitate apprenticeship fail
20. Preliminary conclusion from case studies
- Political coalitions in critical juncture of development of post-
secondary education and training regimes shape development
paths:
Sweden: cross-class coalition with dominant Left
Germany: cross-class coalition with dominant Right, Christian
Democracy as driving force of firm-based VET
UK: no cross-class coalition, dominance of market liberalism
- Emerging path dependencies:
Sweden: social partners support school-based training
Germany: social partners support firm-based training
UK: „tenacity of voluntarism“ (D. King)
Implications for social inequality!?
33. Conclusion
- Skill formation regimes started from a relatively similar position in
the immediate post-war period, but developed into (at least) three
distinct types in the subsequent decades
- Interplay between partisan politics and socio-economic institutions
during critical junctures of historical development explain why this
happened
- Institutional set-up of skill formation regimes has important
consequences for contemporary patterns of educational and social
inequality
Role of VET as an important factor mitigating social inequality is
often underestimated in public debates
Public/private financing in HE matters
