Economic historians tend to see apprenticeship as a purely economic phenomenon, as an ‘incomplete contract’ in need of legal and institutional enforcement mechanisms. The contributors to this volume have adopted a broader perspective. They regard learning on the shop floor as a complex social and cultural process, to be situated in an ever-changing historical context. The results are surprising. The authors convincingly show that research on apprenticeship and learning on the shop floor is intimately associated with migration patterns, family economy and household strategies, gender perspectives, urban identities and general educational and pedagogical contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \tList of Figures and Tables\u003cbr\u003e \tPreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/b\u003e ‘Learning on the Shop Floor’ in Historical Perspective\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eBert De Munck\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eHugo Soly\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003ePART I: BETWEEN SCHOOL AND HOUSEHOLD\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/b\u003e Apprentices, Servants and Other Workers: Apprenticeship in Japan\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eMary Louise Nagata\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 3.\u003c\/b\u003e From School to Workshop: Pre-training and Apprenticeship in Old Regime France\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eClare Crowston\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003ePART II: BETWEEN CONTRACT AND PRACTICE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/b\u003e Apprenticeship and Guild Control in the Netherlands, c.1450–1800\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eKarel Davids\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/b\u003e Construction and Reproduction: The Training and Skills of Antwerp Cabinetmakers in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eBert De Munck\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 6.\u003c\/b\u003e Learning by Brewing: Apprenticeship and the English Brewing Industry in the Late Victorian and Early Edwardian Period\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eJonathan Reinarz\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003ePART III: SOCIAL AND CULTURAL CONTEXTS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 7.\u003c\/b\u003e Silk Weaver and Purse Maker Apprentices in Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Vienna\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eAnnemarie Steidl \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 8.\u003c\/b\u003e Social Mobility and Apprenticeship in Late Medieval Flanders\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003ePeter Stabel\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eChapter 9.\u003c\/b\u003e Apprentices in the German and Austrian Crafts in Early Modern Times: Apprentices as Wage Earners?\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eReinhold Reith\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cb\u003eConclusion\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter 10.\u003c\/b\u003e Reconsidering Apprenticeship: Afterthoughts\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003ci\u003eSteven L.
