Sobre IBD

Drawing on the insights of economic sociology, ’SmallFirms and Universities: How Training Markets AreSocially Constructed’ offers a detailed account ofactor behaviour within the market for vocationaleducation and training. Against the background ofdebates surrounding the central role of skills inpromoting success within the global economy, DanielBishop questions the popular suggestion thatindividuals and organisations will make rationally(and asocially) calculated ’investments’ in theirskills, education and training in order to furthertheir chances of success. Through a study of smallfirms and universities, he presents an alternativeview of the training market: one where theparticipants are embedded in a complicated web ofsubjective orientations and social relations. Thediscussion dissects and explores this embeddednessand complexity, and offers a new way forward forunderstanding the way in which markets for educationand training operate.
