Abstract

Professions have been traditionally conceptualized as special occupational categories with distinguishing traits called to provide needed service. The social and economic context of these attributes is assumed unproblematic or taken for granted. This study of doctor's strikes in Nigeria critiques this conception and offers a political economy alternative. It analyses professions and their traits within a given context, and in relation to other groups. It is suggested that doctors in Nigeria are a powerful and privileged group, a view they seem to successfully use to pursue their interests.

摘要

传统上，职业被概念化为具有独特特征的特殊职业类别，旨在提供所需服务。这些属性的社会和经济背景被认为是没有问题的或理所当然的。这项关于尼日利亚医生罢工的研究对这一概念提出了批评，并提供了一种政治经济学的替代观点。它分析了特定背景下的职业及其特征，并与其他群体相关联。研究表明，尼日利亚的医生是一个强大且享有特权的群体，他们似乎成功地利用这一观点来追求自身利益。
