Research publication becomes a Palgrave series

Since 2018 the research group Vocational and Educational Training (VETYL) at the Department of Education, Stockholm University, has published the research book series, Emergent Issues in Research on Vocational Education and Training. We are now very happy to announce that the book series from now on will continue to be published by Palgrave Macmillan publishing company under the title Palgrave Studies in Technical and Vocational Education and Training.

 

Palgrave Macmillan is a world-class publisher of books and journals with more than 175 years’ experience in the Humanities and Social Sciences. The publication of the new book series under Palgrave MacMillan’s professional management and administration creates opportunities to reach a wider international audience in the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) research field, but also a recognition of the book series that we have been able to publish with the support of our Department.

 

About the series

This new book series emphasises the various dimensions involved in research, policymaking and practices of teaching and learning. The series illustrates the diverse tensions, challenges and research problems in various national systems of Technical and Vocational Education and Training, as well as cross-national aspects.

Contributions to the series will enhance knowledge and insights within the field based on empirical research and theoretical/conceptual analyses. Unique to the series is an understanding of TVET as a complex field, where research problems and new knowledge are located and interact at macro, meso and micro levels, consequently demanding a multidisciplinary, theoretically and methodologically diverse research approach. The role of TVET in sustainable development will be given particular attention. 

The 8th volume is now available on this link
