Federalism and Educational Policy: The West German Experience.

De Vuyst, J.

Comparative Education, v20 n3 p377-86 1984

Difficulties in the Federal Republic of Germany illustrate the problems of transferring educational policy-making from national state authorities to local communities. Important initiatives in equalization of teacher pay and standardization of teacher training were attempted during 1970-1980, but did not achieve success. Political competition was primarily to blame for stalemates. (BRR)
