    Abstract: This handbook provides answers to questions such as "What is a teacher?", "What do we mean by public education expenditure?" as well as questions concerning the use of the indicators "How should I interpret expenditure per student?" "What is it measuring?". In so doing, the handbook aims to facilitate a greater understanding of the OECD statistics and indicators produced and so allow for their more effective use in policy analysis. Equally, it provides a ready reference of international standards and conventions for others to follow in the collection and assimilation of educational data. This publication describes the methodology used in the International Survey of Upper Secondary Schools(ISUSS) and in related OECD publications and allows researchers to understand and replicate its analyses.

    Abstract: This book outlines practices in OECD countries to promote equity in education, that is, to address the needs of students with disabilities, learning difficulties and social disadvantages. The book highlights the number of students involved and where they are educated (special schools, special classes or regular schools). New data are included covering pre-school and upper secondary education and data on gender have also been expanded. The book also includes information on the physical provision and on student/teacher ratios. It includes a comprehensive set of statistics on the different categories of students and indicators of equity. The analysis is based on both quantitative and qualitative data provided by 28 OECD countries and a number of provinces.

    Abstract: Les scandales et faillites qui ont ébranlé le monde des entreprises, conjugués à des préoccupations économiques plus larges, ont incité les pays de l'OCDE à accorder une attention plus soutenue au gouvernement d’entreprise, désormais reconnu comme un élément fondamental de la croissance économique et de la stabilité financière. Cette étude se penche sur les problèmes systémiques et examine les réponses que les pays de l'OCDE y ont apportées. Elle présente une large palette d’expériences dont d’autres pays pourraient s’inspirer lorsqu’ils envisageront les différentes options s’ouvrant à eux en matière d’action publique.

    Abstract: Les pays de l’OCDE attachent une importance grandissante aux politiques de formation tout au long de la vie et aux politiques actives de l’emploi, en tant qu’instruments de la croissance économique et de l’équité sociale. Des systèmes efficaces d’information et d’orientation sont essentiels pour étayer la mise en œuvre de ces politiques, et tous les citoyens doivent acquérir les compétences nécessaires pour gérer eux-mêmes leur évolution professionnelle. Un grand décalage existe cependant entre les objectifs des décideurs publics et les capacités des systèmes nationaux d’orientation. Basée sur un examen conduit dans 14 pays de l’OCDE, cette publication étudie les moyens qui pourraient éventuellement permettre de remédier au décalage entre les services d’orientation professionnelle et l’action gouvernementale.

    Abstract: Élever ses enfants et avoir une carrière professionnelle sont deux objectifs très importants dans la vie de la plupart des gens. Il est donc fondamental pour nos sociétés d’aider les parents à réaliser ces deux objectifs. En effet, l’attention des parents joue un rôle déterminant dans le développement des enfants et l’emploi des parents contribue à la prospérité économique d’un pays. Le déclin du nombre des enfants aura bien évidemment aussi des conséquences sur la constitution et la forme de nos sociétés futures. Ce volume présente un certain nombre de réformes politiques notamment des systèmes de fiscalité/prestations, les politiques de gestion des systèmes de garde des enfants, ainsi que les politiques de l’emploi et les pratiques des entreprises au regard de l’emploi parental qui pourraient être mises en place pour réconcilier travail et famille en Autriche, en Irlande et au Japon.

    Abstract: Producing electricity from renewable energy sources has undeniable appeal, both for environmental reasons and for reducing our dependence on fossil fuels. This book assesses the outlook for six leading renewable energy technologies: small hydro power, solar photovoltaic, concentrating solar power, bio power, geothermal power and wind power. It provides an update on current costs and analyses what future costs might be under different market scenarios. It also identifies key areas for further research and development.

    Keywords: Employment ; Social Issues/Migration/Health ; Behindertenpolitik ; Internationaler Vergleich
    Abstract: Cet ouvrage présente une analyse d'un large éventail de programmes du marché du travail et de protection sociale destinés aux personnes handicapées. En explorant la relation entre les politiques et leurs résultats pour vingt pays de l'OCDE, il permet au lecteur de mieux appréhender d’une part les problèmes que pose la politique de l'invalidité et d’autre part les éléments ou combinaisons d'éléments qui font qu’une politique est efficace. Enfin, le rapport conclut qu'une approche nouvelle et prometteuse de la politique de l'invalidité consisterait à s’inspirer davantage de la logique appliquée pour les régimes de chômage, c'est-à-dire : - mettre l'accent sur l'activation ; - promouvoir une intervention précoce individualisée ; - éliminer les contre-incitations au travail ; - instaurer une culture d'obligations mutuelles ; et impliquer les employeurs. Le rapport constate d'ailleurs que les politiques de nombreux pays comportent déjà certains des éléments importants de cette nouvelle approche.

Il s’agit d’offrir à chacun les mêmes chances en matière d’emploi et d’insertion sociale et de réduire la pauvreté. Par ailleurs, les pratiques d’intégration à l’école favorisent aussi une plus grande demande d’accès à l’enseignement supérieur. Cet ouvrage présente un panorama des pratiques du Canada (Ontario), de la France et du Royaume-Uni en la matière, ainsi que des éléments d’information sur la situation en Allemagne et en Suisse.

    Keywords: Finance and Investment ; Governance ; Science and Technology ; Debt Management ; Kapitalmarkt ; Internationaler Vergleich
    Abstract: Ce rapport est consacré aux évolutions récentes de la structure des marchés des valeurs d’État et des opérations de gestion de la dette publique dans les pays de l’OCDE. Il met également en évidence les problèmes structurels fondamentaux posés aux pouvoirs publics sur les marchés émergents de la dette. Au fil des ans, les gestionnaires de la dette publique des pays de l’OCDE ont mis au point des pratiques exemplaires d’émission, de gestion et de retrait de titres de la dette publique au prix le moins onéreux possible et moyennant des risques acceptables. Ces pratiques s’inscrivaient, pour une large part, dans un contexte de déficits considérables et persistants des finances publiques. Or, avec le passage à une situation d’excédents budgétaires, il a fallu élaborer des techniques nouvelles pour faire face aux répercussions de ce changement (anomalies dans la détermination des prix et contraction de la liquidité sur les marchés de référence traditionnels). Ce rapport analyse par ailleurs l’impact des systèmes électroniques avancés sur les marchés primaire et secondaire. C’est ainsi qu’à l’avenir, des systèmes électroniques d’enchères perfectionnés permettront aux investisseurs institutionnels de soumissionner directement lors des adjudications et de contourner ainsi les spécialistes de valeurs d’État. De même, les systèmes électroniques de négociation vont inéluctablement bouleverser les marchés secondaires des valeurs à revenu fixe. En arrière-plan de ces défis, on voit de plus en plus d’émetteurs souverains des pays de l’OCDE accorder plus d’autonomie à leurs services de gestion de la dette publique, en mettant plus fortement l’accent sur l’évaluation et la gestion des risques. Ce rapport examine enfin l’introduction de nouveaux instruments (les obligations indexées et les instruments dérivés) ainsi que les mesures touchant aux relations avec les investisseurs.

Improving performance has the potential to reduce the tensions between rising demands and limited resources. There is also a growing demand for a

    Abstract: This publication presents five governmental experiments aimed at promoting sustainable development in Canada, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. These countries were selected on the basis of their diversity in terms of size and natural conditions. They also display a variety of economic, environmental and social conditions and cultural patterns. The five case studies illustrate specific institutional and decision-making efforts to adapt governance frameworks in order to respond to sustainable development challenges. The country studies are introduced by an analytical section, which focuses mainly on the way governments (at all levels) could develop integrated approaches to decision-making, on how they could ensure effective participation of civil society, and how they could improve their capacity to "take a longer-term view" - that is to design policies that remain sustainable over the longer-term.

    Abstract: Good governance in modern times requires attention not only to shifting relations between governments, citizens and parliaments, but to the effective functioning of government itself. One important issue is 'Distributed Governance' - a term coined in this publication to capture the notion of proliferating public organisations operating with some degree of separateness from core government ministries. Despite the fact that in many countries more than half of public employment and central public expenditure is carried out through such bodies, they have not been comprehensively studied from a governance perspective. Some important questions concerning these organisations that need to be addressed are: Does government have adequate oversight of them? How accountable are they? and To whom should they be accountable? Distributed Public Governance: Agencies, Authorities and other Government Bodies presents the experience of nine countries with the governance of these bodies. It also draws preliminary conclusions from the work carried out on this topic by the OECD’s Public Management Service (PUMA).

    Abstract: There is widespread agreement that in order to bring about sustainable travel in urban areas, flexible, integrated policy packages are needed that send the right signals to urban land use and transport markets. The project on Implementing Sustainable Urban Travel Policies conducted by the ECMT has shown that actually implementing integrated policy packages for sustainable urban travel is easier said than done for a great number of cities in ECMT and OECD countries. While in most countries, urban land use and travel policies are defined and implemented at the local or regional levels, there is growing recognition that national governments can improve chances for implementation of integrated policy packages by providing for a flexible, sectorally integrated policy framework that sends the right messages to regions and cities via policy incentives and project financing. This report examines the ways in which national governments can act as catalysts for sustainable travel practices on a local level.

Health policy makers have a growing interest in finding ways of encouraging health systems to improve their performance, where performance is measured against quality, efficiency or equity goals. Improving performance has the potential to reduce the tensions between rising demands and limited resources. There is also a growing demand for accountability among funders and providers of health services. This book highlights the core elements of a possible performance measurement framework to assess health systems at the international and national levels. It also addresses further challenges which remain: how do we overcome the lack of health outcome measures? How do we better align performance information and incentives with policy objectives? And how do we reconcile the traditional professional self-regulation approach with greater public accountability for health care quality?

Each country has its own system; however, the general trends are towards diversification of funding sources and decentralisation of responsibility. This publication examines the links between decentralisation and new means of financing. Although local control can guarantee greater effectiveness and responsiveness to local needs, central government remains responsible for ensuring access to equity and equality of educational opportunity.

    Abstract: In order to control ever-increasing health care expenditure, Western and Asian countries are seeking to develop more efficient health care models. Studies on health care that focus specifically on Asian countries are rare, rendering this a unique and welcome addition to the literature. This book presents quantitative research on various aspects of health care reform and health policy in Asia-Pacific countries such as China, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and the US - nations diverse in their economic development, social demographic structure and health care expenditures. The book's main topic for discussion is the role of both government and health insurers in funding health care. The implementation of community-based, supplemental and national health insurance is explored, as are grants and the financing of hospitals and care for the elderly. The effectiveness of education as an input to health investment and the rehabilitation of patients are also examined. Aiming to close the gap between the existing economics research and the rapid pace of the development of Asian health care markets, this unique and timely book is a must read for policymakers, researchers, academics and students with a special interest in health economics, policies and services

    Abstract: There is widespread agreement that in order to bring about sustainable travel in urban areas, flexible, integrated policy packages are needed that send the right signals to urban land use and transport markets. The project on Implementing Sustainable Urban Travel Policies conducted by the ECMT has shown that actually implementing integrated policy packages for sustainable urban travel is easier said than done for a great number of cities in ECMT and OECD countries. While in most countries, urban land use and travel policies are defined and implemented at the local or regional levels, there is

    Abstract: This publication presents five governmental experiments aimed at promoting sustainable development in Canada, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. These countries were selected on the basis of their diversity in terms of size and natural conditions. They also display a variety of economic, environmental and social conditions and cultural patterns. The five case studies illustrate specific institutional and decision-making efforts to adapt governance frameworks in order to respond to sustainable development challenges. The country studies are introduced by an analytical secti

    Abstract: Good governance in modern times requires attention not only to shifting relations between governments, citizens and parliaments, but to the effective functioning of government itself. One important issue is "Distributed Governance" - a term coined in this publication to capture the notion of proliferating public organisations operating with some degree of separateness from core government ministries. Despite the fact that in many countries more than half of public employment and central public expenditure is carried out through such bodies, they have not been comprehensively studied

This study analyses the factors underlying the renewed dynamism of certain African economies in the 1990s. Several countries are, indeed, trying to meet the challenge of building the three pillars of sustainable growth -- capital accumulation, productivity gains and institutional reforms -- in order to combat long-term poverty. The authors identify the countries that are on the way to sustained growth and, on the basis of case studies, the policies the

    Keywords: Transport ; Ballungsraum ; Verkehrsverbund ; Internationaler Vergleich
    Abstract: Le péage n’est pas à proprement parler une invention contemporaine. La technique du péage est très ancienne et ses fondements théoriques remontent loin dans le passé. On peut cependant remarquer que les finalités du péage ont été diverses et variées au cours du temps. Droit de passage à l’origine, le péage a été utilisé ultérieurement pour le financement et les dépenses d’entretien des infrastructures, avant de devenir un élément d’internalisation des coûts externes et de gestion de la demande. A l’heure actuelle, deux motifs principaux sont avancés pour justifier l’instauration de péages : les traditionnels besoins de financement et la recherche d’une certaine efficacité dans l’usage des infrastructures. Cependant, comme le montre cette Table Ronde, les péages ne sont pas une panacée et leur introduction peut être politiquement délicate. Cette Table Ronde offre un large panorama, tant de la perspective théorique du péage que des problèmes concrets posés par son application. Elle permet de faire le point, d’une manière scientifique, sur une question d’actualité brûlante à un moment où plusieurs pays envisagent d’instaurer des péages électroniques généralisés.

    Abstract: De l'avis général, l'avènement de transports urbains durables ne peut passer que par la mise en oeuvre de panoplies de mesures intégrées et flexibles qui envoient les bons signaux aux secteurs des transports et de l'aménagement du territoire.Le projet de la CEMT sur "La mise en oeuvre des politiques de transports urbains durables" a démontré que la mise en oeuvre de panoplies de mesures intégrées s'avère plus facile en paroles qu'en actes dans un grand nombre de villes des pays de la CEMT et de l'OCDE. Alors que la planification urbaine et les politiques de transports sont définies et appliquées au niveau local ou régional dans de nombreux pays, il devient de plus en plus clair que l'administration nationale peut favoriser la mise en oeuvre de panoplies de mesures intégrées. En effet, les autorités nationales peuvent créer un cadre d'action souple et unifié dans une optique intersectorielle, et envoyer ainsi aux régions et aux villes des messages appropriés par le biais d’incitations des pouvoirs publics et par le financement de projets en faveur du développement durable. Ce rapport montre en quoi les administrations nationales peuvent servir de catalyseur propre à engendrer des pratiques durables en matière de transports locaux.

    Abstract: Cities around the world face enormous problems of transport sustainability. Rapidly increasing populations and vehicle usage have created gridlock and sprawl, even in very poor cities, as well as unacceptably high levels of air pollution, noise, and accident rates. But improvements can be made. This book explores how the provision of better bus services can bring concrete solutions. "Bus rapid transit" systems emerging in Latin America provide fast, reliable and efficient urban travel for large numbers of people. Express busways, employing high-capacity buses and new technologies such as GPS-based bus tracking systems, can conveniently and reliably move up to 10 times as many people along a route as can cars – and be profitable. This book shows how bus rapid transit differs from traditional bus systems and how it can be developed around the world. There is a detailed look at clean fuels and advanced technologies such as "clean diesel", CNG, hybrid-electric and fuel cells. Case studies are made of six cities and of the steps each might take to encourage more sustainable transport systems.

Existing social protection programmes in many Asian countries were found to be insufficient and not well designed. It is now widely agreed that considerable effort is required to set up and further develop appropriate social protection mechanisms in the region. This book provides the proceedings of two meetings organised by the OECD to discuss the issue of developing social protection. It brings together perspectives of experts from Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippi

    Abstract: La délinquance et la fraude dans les transports routiers sont des problèmes de plus en plus préoccupants. L'ampleur du phénomène de vols de marchandises et de véhicules transportant des marchandises est difficile à estimer mais les données disponibles montrent que non moins de 1 % de la flotte commerciale est volée chaque année dans certains pays, ce qui correspond à des pertes annuelles s’élevant à plusieurs millions d’euros. Cette publication fournit des informations sur les vols de véhicules commerciaux et de marchandises pour les années 90 dans 23 pays européens. Elle décrit les types de vol et les méthodes de recensement utilisées, mettant ainsi en lumière les difficultés rencontrées pour mesurer le phénomène statistiquement. Ce rapport identifie les manières (existantes ou potentielles) d’améliorer la sécurité des véhicules de transports routiers de marchandises. Il passe en revue les équipements qui peuvent permettre de prévenir le vol des véhicules (dispositifs de prévention des vols) et de localiser et récupérer les véhicules volés (systèmes après vol). Ce rapport est le résultat de deux études portant respectivement sur le «Vol de marchandises et de véhicules transportant des marchandises» et «L’amélioration de la sécurité des véhicules dans le transport de marchandises par route». Il décrit également les différentes actions des Ministres de la CEMT et les décisions politiques prises en la matière.

    Abstract: Concilier travail et vie de famille est une ambition qui se décline, tant pour les individus que pour la société, en deux objectifs principaux : permettre à chacun de travailler afin de percevoir un revenu en participant à l’activité sociale la plus importante de la vie moderne, et de s’occuper le mieux possible de l’éducation de ses propres enfants. La première étude de l’OCDE consacrée à la façon de concilier travail et vie de famille analyse les défis que les parents de jeunes enfants doivent relever lorsqu’ils tentent de concilier leur occupation professionnelle et leurs obligations familiales, ainsi que les conséquences qui en découlent sur le plan social et sur le plan des évolutions observées sur le marché du travail. Elle examine la palette des politiques menées actuellement en faveur de la famille en Australie, au Danemark et aux Pays-Bas et analyse comment les diverses mesures mises en place dans ces trois pays influent sur les tendances du marché du travail, ainsi que sur d’autres données sociétales.

    Abstract: Comment mesurer la performance des systèmes de santé ? Et comment peut-on l'améliorer de façon constante grâce à ce type de mesures ? Telles sont les grandes questions traitées dans ce volume. Les responsables des politiques de santé cherchent de plus en plus à encourager les systèmes de santé à améliorer leur performance, performance qui se mesure en termes de qualité, d’efficience ou d’équité. De meilleures performances devraient contribuer à réduire la tension entre une demande en augmentation et des ressources limitées. Par ailleurs, on exige de plus en plus des organismes de financement et des prestataires de services de santé qu’ils rendent compte de leurs actes.Cet ouvrage aborde les principaux éléments d’un cadre d'analyse possible de la performance permettant de procéder à des évaluations des systèmes de santé à l'échelon national et d'établir des comparaisons internationales. Il traite aussi de quelques problèmes épineux non résolus : comment pallier l’absence de mesures des résultats en matière de santé ? Comment mieux faire cadrer les incitations et les informations sur les performances avec les objectifs de la politique de santé ? Comment concilier la démarche traditionnelle d'autorégulation professionnelle avec l’exigence d’une plus grande responsabilité de la profession à l’égard du public quant à la qualité des soins de santé dispensés ?

    Abstract: Reconciling work and family life involves two key goals for both individuals and society: being able to work, to earn an income while participating in the most important social activity of modern life, and providing the best care and nurturing for one’s own children. This first OECD review of the reconciliation of work and family life looks at the challenges parents of young children confront when trying to square their work and care commitments, and the implications for social and labour market trends. It considers the current mix of family-friendly policies in Australia, Denmark, and the Netherlands and explores how this policy balance contributes to different labour market and other societal outcomes in these three countries.

    Abstract: Cet ouvrage constitue une source autorisée d’informations récentes sur les marchés des titres d’emprunt d’Amérique du Nord, de la région Asie-Pacifique et d’Europe. Rédigé par les responsables nationaux de la gestion de la dette publique eux-mêmes, il donne un aperçu sans équivalent des pratiques à suivre en matière de politique et de technique de gestion de la dette publique. Cette étude porte également sur les problèmes et l’action des autorités sur les marchés émergents de la dette publique. Elle reflète les progrès qui ont été accomplis dans la compréhension des politiques à suivre grâce au dialogue mené avec les gestionnaires de la dette publique des marchés émergents (en lien notamment avec les crises financières).

    Keywords: Environment ; Privater Verbrauch ; Nachhaltigkeit ; Internationaler Vergleich
    Abstract: La poursuite des objectifs de développement durable passe par un changement des modes de consommation. Dix ans après le Sommet de la Terre de Rio de Janeiro, quel bilan peut-on dresser ? Les pays de l'OCDE se sont-ils engagés dans la voie de la consommation durable ? Comment promouvoir une consommation durable de façon efficace ? Ce livre offre une étude complète des tendances de consommation des ménages dans cinq domaines clés : la consommation alimentaire, les transports liés au tourisme, la consommation d’eau et d’énergie et la production de déchets. Il rassemble des éléments essentiels permettant de mieux comprendre les enjeux liés à la consommation et les réponses politiques qui peuvent être apportées : déterminants de la consommation et tendances, impacts environnementaux, politiques adoptées et recommandations d’actions. L'analyse met en évidence une aggravation des impacts environnementaux liés aux activités des ménages au cours des trois dernières décennies et son intensification probable dans les vingt prochaines années (en particulier dans les domaines de l'énergie, du transport et des déchets) si des politiques adéquates ne sont pas mises en oeuvre. Cet ouvrage propose un cadre d’analyse des politiques pour répondre à ce défi, et identifie les combinaisons d’instruments (économiques, réglementaires, sociaux) pour promouvoir un mode de consommation durable des ménages.

    Abstract: This report examines the form regulation should take in rail freight markets to promote efficiency in railways and the wider economy. It analyses issues of monopoly, scale economies, competition, mergers, ownership and the structure of the rail industry. Experience in North America, Australia, Japan, the European Union and countries from eastern and western Europe is reviewed. The need for regulation differs by market and, together with political constraints, this means that regulatory models can not be transferred wholesale from one continent to another. However, each region provides important lessons for reforms currently under consideration in all ECMT and OECD countries.

    Abstract: Poor corporate governance was identified as one of the root causes of the recent Asian financial crisis. The absence of effective disciplines on corporate managers, coupled with complicated and opaque relationships between corporations, their owners and their finance providers, affected severely investors' confidence in the region's corporate sectors. Economies that took early steps to improve corporate governance have been recovering from the crisis at a more rapid pace than those who have not addressed this issue. The Asian crisis showed that good corporate governance is important not only f

    Abstract: This book sets out a potential response to two major challenges facing OECD countries: the "youth problem", or the need to ensure that young people can play a full role in society, and the need to foster entrepreneurship for job creation, innovation and economic adaptability. The "new economy" will be built on a culture of entrepreneurship and this must include youth as well as adults. In publishing this book, the OECD therefore wishes to stimulate policy debate on the factors that encourage youth entrepreneurship, the obstacles that stand in its way and the policy measures

The early years are increasingly viewed as the first step in lifelong learning and a key component of a successful educational, social, and family policy agenda. Countries have adopted diverse strategies to policy development in this field - strategies which are deeply embedded in particular country contexts, values, and beliefs. In particular, early childhood policy and provision are strongly linked to cultural and social beliefs about young children, the ro

    Abstract: L'Afrique émergente part d'une conviction profonde : sans décollage de la croissance, la pauvreté ne pourra être réduite dans les pays les moins développés. Cet ouvrage analyse les facteurs du regain de dynamisme de certaines économies africaines dans les années 90. En effet, plusieurs pays africains tentent de relever un défi : mettre en place les trois piliers d'une croissance durable (accumulation du capital, gains de productivité et réformes institutionnelles) afin de s'attaquer à la pauvreté à long terme. Les auteurs identifient les pays qui sont en passe de réussir leur décollage économique, et analysent, à partir d'études de cas, les politiques qui ont été adoptées pour approfondir le processus de réforme. Ces dernières s'appliquent aussi bien aux pays africains émergents qu'à ceux qui cherchent à les rejoindre.

    Abstract: Que nous apprend la comparaison des taxes et redevances françaises et allemandes ? Les transporteurs paient-ils davantage dans un pays que dans l'autre ? Si tel est le cas, quel effet cette différence a-t-elle sur la rentabilité des transports dans chacun des deux pays ? L'impact d'une hausse de la taxe sur le gazole est-il le même dans les deux pays, ou les écarts de coûts de main-d’oeuvre sont-ils plus importants ? Ces différences faussent-elles le marché du transport routier international ? Cet ouvrage fournit un cadre qui permet d'effectuer des comparaisons à l'échelle internationale. Il traite en profondeur des principes économiques à respecter afin d'assurer l'efficience des systèmes de taxation. Quel est le niveau de taxes idéal ? Quels types de prélèvements conviendrait-il d’appliquer ? Autant de questions cruciales que ces travaux permettent d'appréhender.

    Abstract: How do taxes and charges for transport in, for example, France compare with those in Germany? Do hauliers in one country pay more than in the other, and what impact does this have on the profitability of haulage in each country? Is the impact of an increase in tax on diesel the same in each country or are differences in the taxation of labour more significant? Do these differences distort the international haulage market? This book provides a framework for international comparisons and discusses the economic principles for efficient systems of taxation. The work provides a basis for addressing the questions "what is the right level for transport taxes" and "what kinds of charges should be used".

    Keywords: Education ; Employment ; Lebenslanges Lernen ; Bildungsfinanzierung ; Internationaler Vergleich
    Abstract: L’apprentissage est une condition essentielle du progrès dans la « société du savoir », et il joue un rôle déterminant pour la croissance économique et le bien-être collectif. Les pays Membres de l’OCDE se sont engagés à faire de la formation tout au long de la vie une réalité pour tous. Mais la réalisation de cet objectif exige des ressources importantes et ces pays n’ont pas tous les mêmes possibilités de se les procurer. Sauront-ils trouver les moyens de relever ce défi ? L’objet de cet ouvrage est d’apporter des réponses à cette question en mettant en lumière et en examinant les problèmes économiques et financiers que pose la mise en œuvre de l’objectif visé, ainsi que les stratégies auxquelles secteur public et secteur privé ont recours pour le réaliser. Y sont traitées des questions telles que les comptes-formation individuels, la reconnaissance de l’apprentissage non institutionnalisé et les mesures requises pour élever les taux de rendement de la formation tout au long de la vie. Ce rapport est destiné à servir de référence aux pouvoirs publics et aux partenaires sociaux pour la tenue d’un débat approfondi et permanent sur le sujet. Son but est de susciter dans l’avenir l’adoption de mesures propres à faire de la formation tout au long de la vie une stratégie viable et équitable de développement humain. Cet ouvrage s’inspire des analyses, conclusions et enseignements dégagés des travaux antérieurs de l’OCDE, ainsi que des débats de la conférence internationale consacrée à « La formation tout au long de la vie : un investissement abordable » (Ottawa, décembre 2000).

    Abstract: Cet ouvrage propose des pistes pour résoudre deux des grands problèmes auxquels les pays de l’OCDE sont confrontés : le « problème des jeunes » auxquels il faut garantir une place dans la société, et la nécessité de stimuler l’esprit d’entreprise pour créer des emplois et favoriser l’innovation et la flexibilité économique. La « nouvelle économie » se construira sur une culture de l’entreprenariat à laquelle les jeunes comme les adultes doivent pouvoir accéder. En publiant ces pages, l’OCDE espère susciter un débat de fond sur les facteurs qui encouragent les jeunes à entreprendre, mais aussi sur les obstacles qui leur barrent la route et sur les mesures dont disposent les pouvoirs publics pour les accompagner dans leur démarche. Ce livre présente les divers programmes d’aide à la création d’entreprises qui sont mis à la disposition des jeunes à l’échelon national, régional et local, dans les pays de l’OCDE : il constitue la première étude internationale des « bonnes pratiques » dans ce domaine en plein essor. Les dispositifs cités comme exemples sont de natures diverses : actions de formation, aides financières, soutien sur le plan des idées et du fonctionnement, prestations de conseil et tutorat, constitution de réseaux et transmission d’entreprises entre générations. Des indications sont données sur l’éventail des acteurs et des activités, et des suggestions sont présentées là où persistent certaines lacunes. Cet ouvrage montre que si les jeunes sont tout à fait capables de créer une entreprise et de réussir, de nouvelles mesures s’imposent pour les encourager pleinement à s’engager dans cette voie.

    Abstract: Cette publication examine les formes que la réglementation des marchés de fret ferroviaire doit prendre en vue de promouvoir l’efficience des chemins de fer, et de l’économie en général. Les monopoles, les économies d’échelle, la concurrence, les fusions, la propriété et la structure de l’industrie ferroviaire sont analysés, ainsi que les différentes expériences menées en Amérique du Nord, en Australie, au Japon, dans l’Union Européenne et dans des pays d’Europe de l’Est ou de l’Ouest. Les besoins en réglementation diffèrent selon le marché étudié, et les contraintes politiques ne permettent pas de transférer les modèles de réformes en bloc d’un continent à l’autre. Cependant, il est possible de tirer des leçons des actions menées dans ces pays et de les intégrer dans les réformes qui sont actuellement à l’examen dans tous les pays de la CEMT et de l’OCDE.

    Abstract: Améliorer l’éducation et l’accueil des très jeunes enfants, tant en termes de qualité que d'accès, telle est désormais l'une des principales priorités des pouvoirs publics dans les pays de l’OCDE. On considère de plus en plus que c’est au cours de la petite enfance que se déroule la première phase du processus de formation tout au long de la vie. Pour être efficace, tout programme d’action en matière éducative, sociale et familiale devrait ainsi accorder une place essentielle à cette période de la vie. Les pays définissent leur politique dans ce domaine en s’appuyant sur des stratégies diverses dont la nature est fortement déterminée par le contexte, les valeurs et les convictions propres à chacun d’eux. En particulier, l’action visant les très jeunes enfants et les modalités de leur prise en charge sont étroitement liées aux conceptions culturelles et sociales relatives aux enfants eux-mêmes, mais aussi au rôle de la famille et des pouvoirs publics, ou encore à la finalité de l’éducation préscolaire et de l’accueil de ces enfants. Et ces conceptions diffèrent d'un pays à l'autre comme à l’intérieur d’un même pays. Toutefois, les pays sont confrontés à un grand nombre de difficultés et de problèmes analogues. Elaboré selon une optique plus vaste et plus globale que celle des précédentes études, cet ouvrage présente une analyse comparative des principaux faits nouveaux et des grands problèmes qui se posent dans 12 pays de l’OCDE. Il met en relief les approches novatrices et propose des solutions susceptibles d’être adaptées à des contextes nationaux différents. Quelles sont les stratégies les plus prometteuses pour promouvoir le bien-être de l’enfant et de la famille ? Les auteurs de cet ouvrage ont porté leur regard vers l’avenir : ils y énoncent les huit caractéristiques essentielles d’une politique efficace à l’intention des responsables désireux d’assurer un accès équitable à des services de qualité dans le domaine de l’éducation préscolaire et de l’accueil des très jeunes enfants.

    Abstract: Pour mieux répondre aux nouvelles préoccupations de la population et favoriser le développement durable, les gouvernements sont désormais en faveur d'un large partenariat avec la société civile et le secteur privé. Or, c'est aux niveaux local et régional, au plus près des problèmes et des individus, qu'on se concerte le plus souvent. Aux quatre coins de l’OCDE, des partenariats se forment aujourd’hui pour répondre à des problèmes liés au développement économique, à l’emploi, à la cohésion sociale et à la qualité de vie. Ces partenariats ont en commun une chose essentielle : ils tentent d’améliorer la gouvernance, c’est-à-dire la manière dont la société résout ses problèmes et satisfait ses besoins collectivement. Les partenariats permettent à la société civile et ses ONG, aux entreprises et aux différents niveaux de gouvernement d’élaborer ensemble des stratégies territoriales, d’adapter les politiques au contexte local, et de prendre des initiatives qui vont dans le sens de priorités partagées. Un pari ambitieux, qui pose le défi d’harmoniser responsabilité publique et démocratie participative. Des partenariats locaux pour une meilleure gouvernance tire les leçons des expériences les plus récentes de sept pays : l’Autriche, la Belgique, le Danemark, les États-Unis, la Finlande, l’Irlande et l’Italie. Cet ouvrage propose une stratégie que les gouvernements peuvent mettre en œuvre pour améliorer la gouvernance par le biais du partenariat. Cette stratégie permettra de renforcer les capacités locales au sein d’une économie toujours plus globalisée, contribuant ainsi à réconcilier compétitivité économique, cohésion sociale et progrès environnemental.

    Abstract: Depuis de nombreuses années, les spécialistes des transports, partout dans le monde, considèrent comme exemplaire l'expérience des Pays-Bas en matière de transports urbains. Les Néerlandais se sont résolument et durablement engagés en faveur d'une planification et de politiques intégrées des transports et de l'occupation des sols, pour développer au maximum l'utilisation des transports publics et de la bicyclette. Soutenus par une tradition de planification ancienne et hautement respectée, ils ont entrepris cette tâche dans un contexte institutionnel qui favorise la consultation et la recherche du consensus entre les différents secteurs et acteurs concernés. Comme la plupart des pays, les Pays-Bas ont vu croître les pressions exercées par les transports sur l'environnement : augmentation de la congestion dans les zones urbaines et aux alentours, agressions sonores et pollution atmosphérique et problèmes posés par le trafic de transit international. Bien que les plans stratégiques pour les transports, l'aménagement du territoire et l'environnement aient défini un cadre général pour la prise en compte de ces pressions, il s'est révélé difficile dans de nombreux cas d'atteindre les objectifs et les buts énoncés dans ces plans sont souvent ambitieux. Réalisé à l'occasion de la préparation du Plan national 2000 sur le trafic et les transports (NVVP) que les Pays-Bas ont récemment approuvé, ce rapport est une évaluation de la politique néerlandaise en matière de transports urbains qui s'appuie sur les conclusions établies par une équipe d'experts de la CEMT lors d'une visite effectuée aux Pays-Bas en juin 1999.

    Abstract: Climate change is one of the key challenges facing the international community. The world’s industrial countries and those with economies in transition have, under the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, collectively agreed sharp limitations of their greenhouse gas emissions. Innovative provisions in this Protocol offer potentially cost-effective ways to meet these pledges. They allow investors - nations, as well as companies - to credit emission reductions they accomplish in foreign countries against their own commitments. The two schemes, Joint Implementation and the Clean Development Mechanism, will encourage investment in climate-friendly projects worldwide, especially in developing countries. So far, however, no detailed rules have been adopted to govern the new mechanisms or to evaluate just how many emission credits a particular project should generate. Rigorous methodological analysis is required before any decision can be taken. This book provides that analysis, examining issues in the development of emission baselines in four key sectors: electricity; cement; energy efficiency; and iron and steel. This book moves the debate from the theoretical to the practical. It provides insights on how to develop credible, workable and transparent baselines from which to quantify the mitigation effects of projects initiated under the "Kyoto mechanisms". In so doing, it sails uncharted waters. It attempts, indeed, to "estimate the unknown".

    Abstract: This study focuses in detail on the environmental compliance/competitiveness relationship with respect to the regulation of packaging waste. An important and innovative feature of the study is its emphasis on backward and forward linkages. An entire supply chain is considered: packaging manufacturers and suppliers, food processors and the food retail sector, to study the competitive effects of environmental standards on manufacturing companies and the vertical links and supply responses. A variety of regulatory regimes is represented by including within the study companies from Germany, Italy, the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. While it is of note that the relatively strong regulation in Germany has indeed had effects on company behaviour, there is no evidence that environmental regulations hindered companies from achieving competitive performance. Analyses consider: the response of individual firms to different levels of regulation; the cost of compliance; impact on employment; the influence of the supply chain on environmental and competitive performance; the importance of firm size and ownership; and the impact of regulation on competitiveness, and firm competitiveness on the efficiency of adjustment to regulation

    Abstract: There is broad political support for lifelong learning because it is so vital to sustained economic progress and social cohesion in the "new economy". But its implementation is potentially costly and depends on making the learning process more cost-effective and on securing financial and in-kind resources from the private sector. What can be done to keep lifelong learning from becoming prohibitively expensive, and to ensure that there are strong and transparent incentives to invest in it ? This book looks at recent experience of selected OECD countries as they have articulated their goals and strategies for lifelong learning. It examines policies and practices that influence the rates of return to lifelong learning, and mechanisms that are being put in place to channel financial resources to lifelong learning. It identifies resource issues that need to be addressed if lifelong learning is to be an affordable and workable guide to public policy.

    Abstract: Dans de nombreux pays de l'OCDE, les questions relatives au fédéralisme budgétaire occupent le devant de la scène dans le débat politique. Mais il serait souhaitable que les discussions sur l'action à mener dans ce domaine s'appuient sur des chiffres de dépenses et de taxes comparables au niveau international. La publication annuelle Statistiques des recettes publiques de l'OCDE présente les recettes fiscales par sous-secteur de l'administration publique. Cependant, elle n'indique pas le degré de contrôle que les États fédérés et les collectivités locales exercent sur leurs recettes fiscales. En l'absence d'autres sources de données analogues comparables au niveau international, l'OCDE a élaboré un cadre pour évaluer et analyser le degré de contrôle que les administrations infranationales exercent sur leurs impôts. Les résultats présentés dans cet ouvrage mettent en lumière la grande diversité des formes d'autonomie fiscale au niveau des administrations infranationales. Cette publication contient une description des relations fiscales dans la plupart des dix-neuf pays intéressés et offre une série de tableaux détaillés pour chaque pays,avec une ventilation des recettes selon : 1) le niveau d'administration infranational ; 2) la classification des impôts établie par l'OCDE ; et 3) la catégorie d'autonomie fiscale, suivant le cadre élaboré par le Groupe de travail sur l'analyse des politiques et les statistiques fiscales.

    Abstract: This book provides a full account of a totally new approach to making international comparisons in the field of special needs education. It makes comparisons of students with disabilities, learning or behaviour difficulties and disadvantages on the basis of the additional resources made available to them to access the curriculum, which in some countries covers some 35% of school-age students. To improve the quality of the comparisons made countries re-classified their own classification schemes and data into a new tri-partite cross-national classification system:-Category A covers those students whose disabilities have clear biological causes.-Category B covers those students who are experiencing learning and behaviour difficulties for no particular reason. -Category C covers those students who have difficulties arising from disadvantages.Among the many analyses provided, the book highlights the numbers of students involved, where they are educated (special schools, special classes and regular schools), and a breakdown by gender. Data has been provided by 23 countries: Austria, Belgium (Flemish Community), Canada (New Brunswick), the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Korea, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States.

    Abstract: Literacy in the Information Age, the final report from the International Adult Literacy Survey, presents evidence on the nature and magnitude of the literacy gaps faced by OECD countries. It offers new insights into the factors that influence the development of adult skills in various settings - at home, at work and across the 20 countries for which comparable household assessment results are included. Findings point to large differences in the average level and population distribution of literacy skills both within and between countries. Low literacy skills are evident among all adult groups in significant - albeit varying - proportions. Literacy proficiency varies considerably according to home background factors and educational attainment in most of the countries surveyed. However, the relationship between literacy skills and educational attainment is complex. Many adults have managed to attain high levels of literacy proficiency despite a low level of education; conversely, some have low literacy skills despite a high level of education. These differences matter both economically and socially: literacy affects, inter alia, labour quality and flexibility, employment, training opportunities, income from work and wider participation in civic society. Improving the literacy skills of the population remains a large challenge for policy makers. The results suggest that high-quality foundation learning in schools is important but insufficient as a sole means to that end. Policies directed at the workplace and family settings are also needed. The employers’ role in promoting and rewarding literacy skills is particularly important for skills development.

    Abstract: L'objectif prioritaire des universités n'est plus seulement de relever le niveau de formation de la population et d'améliorer les résultats de la recherche scientifique : l’enseignement et la recherche universitaires doivent également être mis au service d’objectifs économiques et sociaux précis. Nulle part cette attente n’est plus évidente qu'en matière de développement régional. Quel rôle les universités jouent-elles dans le développement des régions où elles sont implantées ? Elles ont certes des effets passifs, sous forme d’emplois directs et indirects, mais comment mobiliser les ressources des universités pour qu'elles contribuent activement au processus de développement ? L’ambition de cet ouvrage est de définir comment les établissements d’enseignement supérieur devraient répondre aux demandes émanant des divers acteurs et organismes en charge du développement régional et réaliser ainsi les objectifs nationaux. Cet ouvrage s'appuie sur les études de cas présentées lors de différentes conférences consacrées à l'Australie, aux États baltes et à la Scandinavie, à l'Europe continentale, aux États-Unis et au Royaume-Uni. Ces études de cas sont complétées par d'autres sources d'information sur la politique de l'enseignement supérieur, telles que les grandes enquêtes nationales sur l'enseignement supérieur réalisées en Australie, en Finlande et au Royaume-Uni, et qui prennent en compte le programme d'action régional.

    Abstract: L'apprentissage tout au long de la vie bénéficie d'un large consensus politique : il est reconnu comme indispensable à la poursuite du progrès économique et au maintien de la cohésion sociale dans la « nouvelle économie ». Mais la concrétisation de cet objectif peut se révéler coûteuse et dépend de la rentabilité du processus d'apprentissage des apports financiers ou des dons en nature du secteur privé. Comment éviter que le coût de l'apprentissage à vie ne devienne prohibitif ? Comment s'assurer qu'il existe bien des mécanismes efficaces et transparents pour le promouvoir ? Cet ouvrage passe en revue les initiatives qu'ont prises certains pays de l’OCDE au cours de ces dernières années pour traduire leurs objectifs en véritables stratégies. Il examine les politiques et les pratiques qui ont un impact sur le rendement de l’investissement dans l'apprentissage tout au long de la vie, ainsi que les mécanismes mis en place pour drainer les capitaux nécessaires à son financement. Enfin, il montre quelles sont les questions budgétaires à régler si l’on veut que l'apprentissage tout au long de la vie soit un objectif à la fois réaliste et réalisable de l’action publique.

    Abstract: Les droits des élèves handicapés à être scolarisés, près de chez eux, au sein du système éducatif classique sont de plus en plus reconnus dans la plupart des pays. Rien ne justifie le maintien de structures séparées pour ces élèves dans les systèmes éducatifs publics ; bien au contraire, ce sont ces systèmes qu'il faut revoir pour qu'ils satisfassent les besoins de tous les élèves. A travers une analyse approfondie des pratiques d'insertion scolaire de huit pays, ce livre aborde les questions soulevées pour assurer le succès de ces initiatives. Il ressort de cette étude, qui constitue la comparaison internationale la plus détaillée menée à ce jour, que tous les élèves, quels que soient la nature ou l'importance de leur handicap, peuvent être intégrés dans une scolarité classique pour peu que certaines précautions soient prises.Neuf questions s'affirment d'une importance cruciale : les principes de financement des établissements, les systèmes de contrôle public de l'utilisation des fonds par les écoles, l'évaluation des élèves, l'élaboration des programmes, le ratio maître-élèves, le rôle des aides éducateurs, le fonctionnement des services de soutien, la formation des enseignants et des autres spécialistes, et la participation de la collectivité et des parents. Les études de cas par pays sont complétées par des annexes décrivant la formation la plus efficace à donner aux enseignants spécialisés, et élaborant une procédure d'analyse coût-efficacité pour l'enseignement intégré.Pour en savoir plus Sur le même thème, l'OCDE a déjà publié Implementing Inclusive Education (1997), disponible en anglais uniquement, L'enseignement post-obligatoire pour les personnes handicapées (1997), et L'intégration scolaire des élèves à besoins particuliers (1995). Une analyse quantitative des données fera l'objet de travaux ultérieurs, à paraître en 2000.Pays couverts Allemagne Australie Canada Danemark Etats-Unis Islande Italie Royaume-Uni

    Abstract: Comment éveiller et cultiver l’intérêt des adolescents pour le « travail » scolaire ? Il est rare que les jeunes enfants ne soient pas curieux mais, au moment où ils abordent l'adolescence, leur appétit de savoir semble bien souvent s'émousser. Nombreux sont ceux qui quittent l’école avant la fin de la scolarité obligatoire. D'autres continuent d’aller à l'école mais réduisent leurs efforts au strict minimum. Ils sont présents physiquement mais leur esprit vagabonde. Ces problèmes sont généralement associés aux pays occidentaux. Pourtant, le Japon et la Corée, deux des pays de la zone du Pacifique qui se distinguent par l'excellence de leurs résultats scolaires, n'y échappent pas. Les chiffres recueillis revêtent une importance nouvelle à une époque où l'un des moyens de survie essentiels des individus -- comme des nations -- est la volonté d'apprendre sans cesse. Que peuvent faire les pouvoirs publics et les systèmes éducatifs pour inculquer aux jeunes le « goût d'apprendre » dont ils auront besoin pour réussir dans les sociétés post-industrielles ? C’est l'une des questions fondamentales qu’aborde cet examen des dispositifs innovants adoptés par huit pays pour faire en sorte que les jeunes acquièrent les compétences et les mentalités indispensables à l'apprentissage à vie.

    Abstract: Strategic business services, examined in twenty-one OECD country case studies in this book, comprise services in computer software and information processing, research and development and technical testing, marketing, business organisation (management consultancy and labour recruitment) and human resource development. This sector has been growing at around 10% per year, and overall turnover for 1999 is likely to be close to USD 1.5 trillion. These services create jobs in OECD countries, directly employing at least 11 million persons. Business organisation services were the major employer, with 3.6 million people in personnel recruitment services and 1.5 million in management consultancy in the mid-1990s. This sector’s strong performance is driven by the general shift towards services, the rise of the knowledge-based economy, the need for greater flexibility within firms, specialisation and increased division of labour in many areas, outsourcing by established firms, and the trend towards smaller production units and firms.Governments influence the demand for business services by promoting private sector investment in intangibles such as R&D, training and education and business organisation, and by supporting the supply of these services through a range of intermediary agencies. The provision of strategic business services is seen as key to improving the performance and competitiveness of small and medium-sized firms.Countries covered Australia Austria Canada Denmark Finland France Germany Ireland Italy Japan Mexico Netherlands Norway New Zealand Portugal Spain Sweden Switzerland Turkey United Kingdom United States

    Abstract: Two of the most significant success stories of post-war trade diplomacy and multilateral trade negotiations that have occurred under the auspices of the GATT (now the WTO) have been the massive reductions in tariffs, and the establishment of non-discriminatory tariffs as the principal means of trade protection. When leaders from around the world gather in Seattle, Washington at the end of November 1999, a fresh opportunity to continue dismantling tariff barriers will present itself. This book provides trade negotiators with an indispensable tool that will help them formulate their negotiating objectives and strategies in the area of tariffs; it also provides policy analysts with key data that are necessary to define negotiating scenarios and to impute the corresponding impact on trade, employment and growth. Finally, students of international trade will no longer need to labour over obtaining comprehensive, detailed, and comparable tariff-line data and could proceed to apply these to policy issues and options.

    Abstract: This study examines the link between FDI and development in six dynamic non-Member economies: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. These countries have all adopted different policies towards FDI in the past, but to a great extent they are all converging on a more open approach. This greater openness, and the overall economic reforms of which FDI liberalisation is but one part, will provide a more fertile environment in which to reap the potential benefits from FDI. FDI can play a key role in improving the capacity of the host country to respond to the opportunities offered by global economic integration, a goal increasingly recognised as one of the key aims of any development strategy. In an environment made more competitive by a decade of economic reforms, many restrictions to FDI in these host countries are at best ineffective and at worst counter-productive.

    Abstract: Every year, up to US$45 billion are transferred from public budgets to manufacturing industry through support programmes in OECD countries. It is essential to perceive the significance of such support if we are to understand the role it plays in structural adjustment strategies and the side-effects it can have on trade, competitiveness and investment. In a globalising economy characterised by greater international competitiveness, the need for transparency is becoming increasingly apparent.This study provides the first comprehensive review of public support to industry. It makes use of a unique set of data covering 25 countries to monitor, analyse and evaluate support policies at both the international and the national level. A more in-depth analysis of support programmes is provided through 17 case studies focusing on individual countries. Special attention is also given to support for industrial R&D and for physical and intangible investment. This study shows that, in nearly all OECD countries, efforts must be made to limit the trade distortions that subsidies can produce and to contain public spending on industry support programmes, given the need for fiscal consolidation. This unique study is an invaluable analytical tool that will help us to meet these challenges.

    Abstract: In all of the OECD countries, employment is seen to be sharply segregated by gender, with women's employment heavily concentrated in the same occupations: secretaries, primary school teachers, nurses and home helpers. These jobs, whose image has in many cases remained stereotyped and traditional, are at the heart of the information and service economy and have therefore been undergoing far-reaching changes due to information technologies, the development of a knowledge-based economy and population ageing. These transformations represent a major challenge for women's employment and for gender equality in the labour market. Beyond the high segregation and concentration scales which are a constant of women's employment in all countries, international comparisons show that there can be differences in the status of a given occupation from one country to another. These differences can stem from the way in which occupations are defined or from how the relevant activities and work are organised. Understanding these differences is essential to identify ways to promote women's career prospects in female-dominated occupations.

    Abstract: This collection of studies of public attitudes to development co-operation in OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) Member countries demonstrates that the concept of "aid fatigue" is misplaced. A serious lack of adequate knowledge about development co-operation, however, is also revealed. The opinions of policy makers are, therefore, overwhelmingly important and development education efforts should be specifically addressed to them. The book also demonstrates that the role of NGOs is important in general development education. Not only do these organisations mobilise their members in the development field, but their activities create a fund of information within their societies. Remarkable progress by both governments and NGOs has been made during the 1990s in improving co-operation domestically and in operational development activities in the field. Most DAC Member countries have significantly increased the involvement of NGOs in their development efforts, and most NGOs have become increasingly effective in their work. The editors conclude that NGOs and governments both need to work towards more and better public and political-level understanding of development efforts. This will require a wide range of complementary activities, some of which are best undertaken by NGOs, and others by government agencies.
