Abstract

A conceptual view is presented linking long term federal full employment policy to education. The asser tion is made that a primary role of the educational system is preparation of individuals for work. It is argued that a long term full employment policy should have a preventive com ponent which involves the educational system, and that the educational system should be made sufficiently flexible to allow for lifetime transferability of work preparation and for various patterns of movement in and out of work and education. The article covers the relationships among technology, work and education; defines types of unemploy ment ; notes the direction of technological change; presents an approach to labor force and educational participation; and offers a preventive policy for full employment planning, contrasting it with aggregate demand measures.
