First published in 1972, this book rejects as inadequate the
'trait' and 'functionalist' theories of the professions and instead
presents an alternative framework to analyse the contemporaneous
occupational change in industrial societies. The author describes
how occupational specialisation creates varying degrees of social
distance between producers and consumers of goods or services, thus
several institutions of control social have developed - collegiate,
corporate or oligarchic patronage, mediative. The author looks at
the social conditions necessary for the development of these
methods of control and the apparent decline of professionalism in
both developed and undeveloped societies.
