Similarities in contexts and theorizing: professionalism and inequality (2012)
Journal Article
Evetts, J. (2012). Similarities in contexts and theorizing: professionalism and inequality. Professions and Professionalism, 2(2), https://doi.org/10.7577/pp.322

For a long time sociologists of professions have differentiated Anglo-American and European contexts for professional work. The presentation will address this distinction and argue that processes of convergence now render such differences somewhat ob...
