Abstract (English):For over two decades, quality has been a central and widely debated issue in lifelong learning. Drawing on a comparative study grounded in qualitative, reconstructive social research, this article examines organizational problems implementing quality development within adult education organisations. The analysis reveals two core problems: first, the organization’s own infrastructure can become an obstacle; second, quality development itself may generate new difficulties rather than solely resolving existing ones. The article reconstructs how adult education organizations navigate these problems in practice. By highlighting the interplay between quality initiatives and organizational structures, the study contributes to a deeper understanding of the complexities inherent in implementing quality development.
