Abstract

This article offers the first systematic study of the institutional and political conditions under which collective agreements finance and organize continuing vocational training (CVT). Combining Mill's methods of agreement and difference with pattern matching, it identifies proactive small and medium enterprises, proactive public policies, proactive trade unions, and links between CVT and wage bargaining as probable conditions for CVT by collective labour agreement. The most important finding is that the research on the development of politicaleconomic institutions in coordinated market economies has to analyse more carefully how state activities and the behaviour of small and medium-sized firms affect the coordination of economic activities in skills formation.
