本文探讨了两个相互关联的问题。首先，英国技能政策倾向于替代其他社会和经济措施。其次，当前技能政策概念化的问题是造成狭隘的技术干预，而这些干预措施往往与其想要解决的问题的规模不相称。这篇文章表明，当前的政策制定过程，特别是在英国，其部署方式旨在排除对解决当代社会和经济问题的其他潜在途径的考虑。为支持此类政策制定的相关研究的政策可能性和途径提供了更广泛的框架。
This article examines two inter-related issues. First, the tendency for UK skills policies to act as a substitute for other social and economic measures. Second, the problem of current conceptualisations of skills policy creating narrowly-drawn, technicist interventions that are frequently incommensurate with the scale of the problems which they purpor t to tackle. The ar ticle suggests that current policy formation processes, particularly in England, are being deployed in a manner that seeks to close off consideration of other potential avenues by which contemporary social and economic problems might be addressed. The case is made for a wider framing of both policy possibilities and avenues for relevant research to support such policy development.
