Apprenticeship or vocational training is a subject of lively
debate. Economic historians tend to see apprenticeship as a purely
economic phenomenon, as an 'incomplete contract' in need of legal
and institutional enforcement mechanisms. The contributors to this
volume have adopted a broader perspective. They regard learning on
the shop floor as a complex social and cultural process, to be
situated in an ever-changing historical context. The results are
surprising. The authors convincingly show that research on
apprenticeship and learning on the shop floor is intimately
associated with migration patterns, family economy and household
strategies, gender perspectives, urban identities and general
educational and pedagogical contexts.
