Synopsis
During the 1990s, governments in France and eastern Germany attempted to convince private companies to cooperate with one another and invest in worker training. In this study, Culpepper (public policy, Harvard U.) analyzes the successes and failures of these vocational training reforms. He concludes that states challenged by problems of decentralized cooperation are most likely to succeed when they can draw upon the information-procuring capabilities of private-sector associations.
