And in all societies there is some means of education, even if it is an informal process passed on from fathers to sons and mothers to daughters. In the most industrialized societies, the emphasis is on higher education and technical training that is required in the industrial, postindustrial, and emerging biotechnical society. In the industrializing nations, there is a catch-up process to introduce the necessary skills and training for these nations to compete in the industrialized society.
