Examines how the British government borrowed ideas from the US for education and training reforms during the last years of the Thatcher government. Describes the transplanting of magnet schools, school choice experiments, business-education compacts, and the federal student loan program. Also considers the problems of grafting such innovations onto a different education structure, and predicts further interchange in the future. The 11 papers are from a July 1990 conference (location not noted). No index. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
