paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Linking Education and the Local Economy examines the collapse of linkages between South Africa's post-school education and training system and the declining furniture industry. Using a case study approach, it explores reasons behind the erosion of the sector's competitiveness. The book shows… how intermediaries - organisations or individuals bridging gaps between firms, education providers and government - could revitalise the industry by fostering collaboration, knowledge exchange and innovation. The book contends that South Africa's furniture industry, once thriving, has suffered due to global competition, neoliberal policies and employer disengagement from public education systems which are viewed as outdated and bureaucratic. The absence of intermediaries exacerbates these challenges, leaving firms isolated and innovation stagnant. While the literature highlights intermediaries as key to strengthening innovation ecosystems, South Africa's 'ruggedly individualistic' business culture and state inefficiencies hinder their effectiveness. The book proposes that structured intermediation - ranging from basic networking to advanced systemic coordination - could rebuild these linkages. Most innovation research focuses on high-tech sectors and radical innovation; this book shifts attention to traditional industries reliant on incremental innovation and tacit knowledge. It proposes a novel framework of intermediation, offering a roadmap for policymakers. Any such roadmap requires sectoral differentiation, rejecting one-size-fits-all policies. In addition, there is a need for state capability-building (enhancing public-sector intermediation skills), firm engagement (encouraging large firms to share knowledge and small firms to embrace collective learning), and reforming intermediaries (shifting from bureaucratic compliance to dynamic, network-driven roles). The insights provided by Linking Education and the Local Economy is of interest to academics and researchers, particularly those in innovation studies, industrial policy, vocational education, and development economics; policymakers, notably government officials drafting industrial and skills development strategies and policies; and industry stakeholders, including business associations, education providers, and intermediaries seeking practical solutions for sectoral renewal. Intermediation, though underutilised in South Africa, holds promise for reconnecting education systems with industry. The empirical and theoretical insights set out in this book offer a blueprint for revitalising not only furniture but other traditional sectors facing similar crises. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
