Economic Needs

1991 was not an auspicious year for the development and implementation of education policy. The assumptions that have guided educational policy making in Aotearoa/New Zealand since 1988 remained. Namely, that education has performed badly, so badly it is in need of radical overhaul and that the risks associated with such a revolutionary strategy are worth it, even at the expense of alienating parents and educationists. Such radical surgery is intended, among other things, to address the urgent issues of reducing the fiscal debt and of setting in place a system of education which will provide for the future economic needs of Aotearoa/New Zealand. Precisely what the future needs of the economy will be with respect to educated labour is a matter of debate...

The Way

In order to provide information on the way in which use of drugs - and of alcohol and tobacco -among young people changes over a period of time, the Norwegian National Institute for Alcohol Research has each spring, since 1968, conducted a survey of the youth of Oslo to determine their use of these drugs. The results are of significance not only from a scientific point of view but also from the point of view of practical policy-making. For instance, since 1974 there does not seem to have been any increase in alcohol consumption among the youth of Oslo, a fact which may reflect the measures which were introduced at that time in order to curb alcohol consumption among young people in Norway.
