New blog post with @ndurazzi.bsky.social & Patrick Emmenegger for @lseeuroppblog.bsky.social. We argue based on three recent articles that vocational training still remains a viable policy option for boosting growth and containing inequality. Article links below ⏬

🥁 New paper in BJPS @bjpols.bsky.social 🥁
