The author discusses and compares the transformations in the profession of lawyers in the United States of America and the doctors in Brazil according to a theoretical analysis based upon the classical theory of the Sociology of the Professions. The discussion about the deprofessionalization of Medicine is conducted along some of the characteristics outlined by the theory. The author concludes that the challenge that faces medicine is a kind of re-organization that will change necessarily the profession as we know it today, but this change will not affect the professional autonomy or any other of its essential characteristics.
作者根据职业社会学经典理论进行理论分析，探讨并比较了美国律师职业和巴西医生职业的转变。关于医学去专业化的讨论是依据该理论所概述的一些特征展开的。作者得出结论，医学面临的挑战是一种重组，这种重组必然会改变我们如今所熟知的这个职业，但这种变化不会影响职业自主性或其任何其他本质特征。
