New Developments in the Sociology of Professions:Towards More Inclusive Concepts and Theoretical Framework
The sociology of professions is of great significance in our understanding of modem society.With the changes in the global socio-economic landscape,the field of sociology of professions has faced a crisis,revealing a series of limitations brought about by its Anglo-Saxon societal presuppositions.In this context,scholars have redeveloped the research paradigms of the sociology of professions,seeking to de-essentialize the concept of profession,and reflecting on abstract knowledge and autonomy assumptions about professions,adopting a more relational and contextualized approach to understand professions.This revitalization has allowed the sociology of professions to regain its explanatory power for social reality,making it more applicable to different countries and regions.In this process,empirical research within the sociology of professions has also expanded.This article systematically reviews these new developments in the sociology of professions and discusses their significance and inspiration for relevant research in China.
