Objectives
Develop a large group
intervention template for transnational learning
Use this template in group
processes for comparing the Nordic countries and
Slovenia
Provide empirical input for
developing a new theory and method for transnational
learning
Generate ideas and
suggestions for new policies and institutions for
enhancing global competitiveness
Description of work
The objective of this
workpackage is to use the method of learning histories
for reflection and seeking opportunities for
transnational learning. For making sense of
transnational learning the project will be based on the
nationally and cross-nationally specific cases. This
means that actors being studied, policy-makers, and
scholars from Europe as well as the United States will
be involved. Learning arenas are large group
intervention processes where the specific cases will be
presented. These will in turn be subject to expert
interpretation, and cross-national scientific dialogues.
At the same time this is an attempt to conduct action
research on the research topics. |
