Sociological Knowledge and Labor Market: The Dilemma of Professions [Review of the book: Fare i sociologi. Una professione plurale tra ricerca e operatività, by C. Facchini].

The structure of this book shows how these issues significantly arise for the sociology of the new millennium, where the identification of new professionals and new skills still remains fuzzy and indeterminate, despite the demand for innovation among occupational profiles. The general impression is that some of the innovative solutions offered for the training of the sociological knowledge are designed and implemented more for the enrichment of knowledge, language or rhetorical discourse than for a defined and coordinated planning needed to support work opportunities after graduation. The book highlights a disconnection between the world of jobs and that of academic training. It is from this separation that the restructuring of contents and methods of sociological training programs needs to start.
