Title
Limits of the Asian challenge, by Daniel Sommer
Description
Article by Daniel Sommer reflecting on the 27th International Vocational Training Competition in Linz, 1983. It discusses the recent dominance of Asian countries, particularly Korea and Japan, in the competitions, while noting signs of convergence between training systems. The piece critiques over-specialization, highlights the value of broader training models like Switzerland’s, and emphasizes that the IVTC is about more than medals: it's a forum for mutual learning and system improvement.
