Le passage des frontières professionnelles en question

Edited by François Buton

Crossing Professional Borders

Studies on Professional Change

Doctors leave their practices to assume positions in government ministries, the pharmaceutical sector, the media, or electoral mandates; artists work for administrative inspectorates; attorneys become consultants...

The social science studies in this book center on a well-known phenomenon—that social actors switch employment or professional activities—also known as "second careers", “vocational retraining” or even “political” or “intellectual involvement”.

The book suggests redefining these shifts in activity as professional “displacements”, or “border crossings”, which entail taking on or giving up “places” and require the mobilization of different and more or less convertible kinds of “capital”. The goal is to reevaluate the current concerns surrounding professional mobility through case studies of doctors, attorneys, farmers, police officers, senior civil servants, consultants, and public servants.
