PublicationThe Shifting Relationship between Vocational and Higher Education in France and Germany: Towards Convergence?(Blackwell Publishing, 2012)
;Powell, Justin J. W. ;Bernhard, Nadine ;Coutrot, LaurenceKieffer, AnnickFor decades, the skill formation systems in France and Germany have been analysed as contrasting cases because of institutionalised differences in educational values, norms, and governance, as well as in labour markets. This comparison follows the logic of difference, comparing dissimilar skill formation systems in centralist France and federalist Germany. Cross-national variance has often been explained in terms of the institutionalization of vocational education, but higher education also differs considerably. Many typologies of vocational education and training (VET) and higher education (HE) summarise these differences. However, not only are national skill formation systems affected by the emerging European model of education via the Bologna and Copenhagen Processes, but the French and German political economies have also been greatly reconfigured in the last two decades. Comparing the present situation, we ask whether traditional education and training typologies continue to be valid. While they have served as useful heuristic devices, they may hinder recognition of contemporary institutional changes, especially incremental changes that may nevertheless be transformational because of endogenous reforms and exogenous pressures due to Europeanisation. Do these typologies continue to reflect these systems as they evolve? To what extent have the key characteristics of skill formation systems in France and Germany changed, exemplified in the relationship between VET and HE? Have these countries converged?Type: journal articleJournal: European Journal of EducationVolume: 47Issue: 3Scopus© Citations 35 -

PublicationComparing the Relationship between Vocational and Higher Education in Germany and France(Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin für Sozialforschung (WZB), 2009)
;Powell, Justin J. W. ;Coutrot, Laurence ;Bernhard, Nadine ;Kieffer, AnnickSolga, HeikeA number of European initiatives aim to create a European educational space, including vocational training and higher education. Following the logic of difference, we ask whether, despite their different institutionalization, these two sectors in France and Germany react similarly to the Europe-wide Copenhagen and Bologna processes. We compare the relationship between vocational education and training (VET) and higher education (HE), contrasting a number of influential typologies. Analyzing the current situation, we ask whether these differences in postsecondary education and training systems continue to exist.
