BLOIS, Juan Pedro. Between Autonomy and Heteronomy: College Socialization and Professional Practices of Sociologists in Argentina. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2013, vol.58, n.218, pp.209-232. ISSN 0185-1918.

This article studies the relation between university socialization and professional practices of sociologists in Argentina since democracy's restoration in the mid-eighties. On the one hand, it examines orientations and ways of understanding the discipline transmitted by the Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA) curriculum contents and, on the other, it reconstructs the main labor market changes. Through the examination of the notion of autonomy (and its opposite, heteronomy), it aims to show that the professional practices of sociologists are strongly conditioned by the set of perception and classificatory schemes incorporated during university socialization. Those schemes, operating through a group of oppositions, contribute to the production of a set of "crafts" or modes of practicing sociology clearly differentiated according to the area or sphere of insertion.

Palavras-chave : sociology; autonomy; university socialization; professional practices; performativity; Argentina.
