Inherent in the educational policies of most countries are concerns to make education both more efficient and more equitable. In theory these goals are not incompatible. A shift in expenditure towards technical/vocational education, for example, could both serve the country's need for skilled labour and narrow the gap between academically trained elites and less "productive" personnel. This book examines the reasons why, in practice, the harmonization of equity and efficiency has not proved feasible.
