Abstract
Perspectives suggest different conceptions of HRD. This concluding article reviews the contributions and proposes four meta-perspectives on HRD: language; community/societal; system; and psychological. It is argued that each perspective suggests a particular conception or definition of HRD and some implications of each meta-perspective for theory and practice are presented. Academics and practitioners are challenged to incorporate multi-perspectival views into theory, method and practice.
