Professionals are influential social actors who leverage their skills and social status to provide specialised services to the public. While sociologists have worked in recent years to highlight the roles of professionals as agents of institutional change, gaps still remain between this approach and studies of professionals who organise to address broader social problems. [...] ongoing research into the architectural profession in the United States. Finally, the authors suggest several implications of this framework for sociological research in professions, social movements, and social inequalities.
