BLOIS, Juan Pedro. The institutionalization and professionalization of sociology in Brazil and Argentina. Formation, organization and intervention of sociologists. Estud. sociol [online]. 2015, vol.33, n.99, pp.633-658. ISSN 2448-6442.

in the last decades, the professional insertions of sociologists in Brazil and Argentina had a remarkable growth. The variety of activities and tasks was certainly wide as the spheres where these professionals were incorporated. Those changes implied a deep redefinition of the sociology scenery, with an increasing number of sociologists working in diverse institutions and social spheres. This article analyses the process of professional differentiation of sociology in Brazil and Argentina in a comparative perspective. Against what could be expected given the different historical trajectories of the discipline in each country, the way in which the sociologists work in the diverse spheres presents strong convergences, characterized by the dominance of a conception of the discipline that rejects the development of sociology as a consulting profession.
