This volume looks at the recontextualization that results from the international transfer of dual modes of vocational education and training (VET), typically focused on apprenticeships, in their countries’ new nation-specific and local context, highlighting the absorptive capacities and the different modes of duality in VET.Combining perspectives and data from a truly international set of contributors, the book identifies diverse translations and enactments of dual modes of vocational education and training. Using a case study approach to understand why and how education policies travel across different world regions, and how they mutate in such processes, the book ultimately provides empirical insights into the dynamics involved in the dissemination and recontextualization of global education policies. Chapters discuss local enactments, such as the views of apprentices in two states in Mexico, and an in-depth look at the Industrial Training Institute (based on the Dual System of Training) located in Gujarat, India. Further case studies stretch across the globe from contexts as diverse as China, Spain and Canada, and refer to countries such as Nigeria, Kenya, Botswana and Namibia.This book will be of use to scholars, postgraduate students and researchers in the fields of international and comparative education, vocational education and training, and adult education and lifelong learning more broadly. Policy makers working in international policy transfer may also benefit from this volume.
