【内容提要】职业社会学对我们理解现代社会具有重要意义。随着全球社会经济的变迁,职业社会学研究出现了危机,暴露出其基于英美社会的预设所带来的一系列局限。在此背景下,学者们重新发展了职业社会学的研究范式,“去本质化”地理解职业的概念,反思关于职业的抽象知识和自主性预设,并以更为关系性、情境化的方式理解职业,使职业社会学重新获得了对社会现实的解释力,也更加适用于不同的国家和地区的现实。在此过程中,职业社会学的经验研究也进一步扩展。本文系统梳理了职业社会学这一系列的新发展,进而讨论其对于中国相关研究的意义与启发。

New Developments in the Sociology of Professions:Towards More Inclusive Concepts and Theoretical Framework
Abstract:The sociology of professions is of great significance in our understanding of modern 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.
