This collection seeks to reconnect two separate streams of work on professional organizations and professional occupations. In particular the articles collected here identify two key themes: (1) the challenges and opportunities that professional organizations pose for established and emerging professionalization projects and (2) the extent to which professional organizations create, institutionalize and manipulate new forms of professionalism and models of professionalization. To this effect, this collection brings together a number of articles from a broad range of disciplines (sociology, management, healthcare, accountancy, law and geography), theoretical backgrounds and national contexts which explore the complex connections between professional occupations and organizations.
Ce recueil cherche à reconnecter les travaux sur les organisations professionnelles et ceux sur les professions dont les objectifs de recherche divergent de plus en plus. Les articles présentés ici regroupent en particulier deux thèmes: (1) Les défis et opportunités que les organisations professionnelles présentent pour les projets de professionnalisation établis ou bourgeonnants et (2) la mesure dans laquelle les organisations professionnelles créent, institutionnalisent et manipulent de nouvelles formes de professionnalisme et de nouveaux modèles de professionnalisation. Dans ce but, ce recueil rassemble des articles d’un large spectre de disciplines (sociologie, gestion, santé, comptabilité, droit et géographie), d’écoles théoriques et de contextes nationaux qui explorent les relations complexes entre les professions et les organisations professionnelles.
Esta colección de artículos busca reconectar con el trabajo sobre organizaciones profesionales y ocupaciones profesionales, puesto que estas agendas de investigación se han visto cada vez más desconectadas. En particular, los artículos recopilados en la presente identifican dos temas clave: (1) los desafíos y las oportunidades que las organizaciones profesionales plantean a los proyectos de profesionalización emergentes y establecidos y (2) el punto hasta donde las organizaciones profesionales crean, institucionalizan y manipulan nuevas formas de profesionalismo y modelos de profesionalización. A este efecto, esta colección recopila una amplia gama de artículos de diferentes disciplinas (sociología, administración, atención sanitaria, contabilidad, leyes y geografía), marcos teoréticos y contextos nacionales que explora la compleja relación entre ocupaciones profesionales y organizaciones profesionales.
