Abstract

This chapter analyses how the EU affects training systems in lessdeveloped societies. EU policies on training provide a useful means of assessing the effectiveness of ‘soft governance’ as a mechanism for introducing new policy strategies for two reasons. Firstly, unlike a policy area such as competition or trade, the policy outcomes are quite accessible and tangible. Secondly, training was an area in which the EU initially did have the capacity to devise hard, binding legislation. The community opted not to introduce binding training initiatives, due largely to political opposition to ‘EU interference’ at the national level.
