We introduce the concept of state-led bricolage to analyze the expansion of the Swiss apprenticeship training system - in which employer associations fulfill core collective governance tasks - to economic sectors in which training had previously followed a school-based and state-oriented logic. In deindustrializing societies, these sectors are key for the survival of collectively governed training systems. Through a mixed-methods analysis, we examine the reform process that led to the creation of new intermediary organizations that enable collective governance in these sectors. In addition, we compare the organizational features of these organizations with the respective organizations in the traditional crafts and industry sectors. We find that the new organizations result from state-led bricolage. They are hybrid organizations that reflect some of the bricoleur's core policy goals and critically build on the combination of associational and state-oriented institutional logics.}, language = {en} } @incollection{EmmeneggerGrafStrebel, author = {Emmenegger, Patrick and Graf, Lukas and Strebel, Alexandra}, title = {Die Rolle der Gewerkschaften in der Berufsbildung: Ein Vergleich Deutschlands und der Schweiz}, series = {Transformationen von Arbeit, Beruf und Bildung in internationaler Betrachtung}, booktitle = {Transformationen von Arbeit, Beruf und Bildung in internationaler Betrachtung}, publisher = {Springer VS}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-32682-1}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-658-32682-1_4}, publisher = {Hertie School}, pages = {61 -- 78}, abstract = {In unserem Beitrag untersuchen wir die Rolle der Gewerkschaften in der Berufsbildung.

In contrast, unions play a considerably weaker role in the more liberal Swiss system, which privileges employers' interests. We show that the different position of unions in VET systems has the expected consequences on a range of indicators. We further examine why unions are less important in Switzerland and show how, after the First World War, differences in the institutional environment and power resources of the union movements set Germany and Switzerland on different paths, which are still visible today.}, subject = {-}, language = {en} } @article{StrebelEmmeneggerGraf, author = {Strebel, Alexandra and Emmenegger, Patrick and Graf, Lukas}, title = {New Interest Associations in a Neo-Corporatist System: Adapting the Swiss Training System to the Service Economy}, series = {British Journal of Industrial Relations}, journal = {British Journal of Industrial Relations}, doi = {10.1111/bjir.12581}, abstract = {Collective skill formation systems need to adapt to economic change, most notably the expansion of the service economy. However, deeply anchored in the craft and industrial sectors, these systems rely on neo-corporatist institutions to undergird firms' training provision, which are often missing in the service sector. We show that Switzerland's voluntaristic approach to interest intermediation provided the flexibility needed to extend vocational training to economic sectors without neo-corporatist institutions. Yet, these adaptations resulted in the emergence of interest associations characterised by low levels of generalisability and governability. These new associations co-exist with neo-corporatist ones, rendering the overall training system surprisingly heterogeneous.}, language = {en} } @article{StrebelEmmeneggerGraf, author = {Strebel, Alexandra and Emmenegger, Patrick and Graf, Lukas}, title = {Die vielen Motoren der Berufsbildung}, series = {Governance der Berufsbildung: Eine systematische Analyse der Organisationen der Arbeitswelt.
