Abstract
Work in times of globalisation and uncertainty is undergoing considerable changes,
which has strengthened the importance of work as a site of learning. New trends in
production, such as digitalisation, challenge traditional modes of producing goods
and services. Emerging forms of flexible production and knowledge-work offer
growing learning opportunities to people throughout their active working life. In
contrast to the stable and standardised modes of Fordist production, modern
working life is characterised by rapid changes and employees interacting across
globally distributed professional and spatial production networks. Based on
continuous relationships of mutual exchange and knowledge building between
customers, suppliers and producers, these kinds of learning environments are
essentially different from those offered in a school setting. More research is needed
to explore the opportunities and obstacles to enhance learning through negotiation
and boundary-crossing between different areas of expertise and professionalism.
We are far from seeing rich learning environments provided to large groups of lowskilled
workers in poor working conditions at the bottom of the global supplier
chains. This book explores the challenges of working and learning on the boundaries between education and working life. Globalisation affects the transition patterns from vocational education to the labour market in many ways (Schoon & Silbereisen, 2009), even though the specific challenges to national-level policies vary and need consideration.
