Abstract

While the rate of significant social change in society and the precise direction of such change are subject to debate (La Piere, 1965: 40), the continuing developing sociological concern with professions and their relationship to the changing structure and processes of society cannot be denied. Interest in professions, particularly medicine, law, and theology, has been traditional in Western Society. (Nosow and Form, 1962: 198). However, it is only recently that a sociology of occupations and professions has developed along scientific and dependable lines (Fichter, I96I: xiii).
