Abstract

Building on decades of discussions of professionalism across various social sciences (namely in sociology and in educational sciences), the paper critically deals with the concept of teacher professionalism. First, the reasons of the risk of de-professionalization are discussed. Second, possible answers to the risk are mentioned, especially those based on change of understanding of professionalism, like deployment of role-professionalism (Milana & Skrypnyk, 2012). Finally, the paper discuss risks of promotion of professionalism using the market tools and managerial measures. Shift from "controlled content" to "content of control” (Noordegraaf, 2007) is considered to be risky itself.
