ADAMS, Tracey L.  y  SAKS, Mike. Neo-weberianism and changing state-profession relations: the case of Canadian health care. Sociologia, Problemas e Práticas [online]. 2018, n.88, pp.61-77. ISSN 0873-6529.  https://doi.org/10.7458/SPP20188814798.

Professions now operate in a more critical modern Western societal context. This has typically led to a major political challenge by the state to the self-regulation of such groups. It is argued, though, that the reasons for this are more complex than a knee-jerk reaction to the growing number of emerging professional scandals. Accordingly, tools are provided from a neo-Weberian perspective to analyse changes in state-profession relations - bringing state actors to the fore in a novel way. Their application is illustrated mainly through a case study of Canadian health profession regulation.

Palabras clave : health care; neo-Weberianism; professions.
