Health Professions and Organizations:
Issues of International Comparison
XVIII ISA World Congress Yokohama 13-14 July 2014

Session Organizers
Philippe MOSSE, Aix Marseille Université, France,
Tetsu HARAYAMA, Toyo University, Japan.

Session in English

Health systems and their protagonists are faced with similar challenges (demographic, financial, economic, social) that health professionals are supposed to solve. Faced with these challenges is a great temptation to develop answers "universal" illustrated the deployment of "New Public Management".

The session will aim to confront comparative approaches that allow to highlight the tension between the apparent convergence and persistence of country-specific logic.

A Workshop for the Emerging Convention, Aix, November 5





A workshop was held at the LEST, Aix, November 5 for discussing “Health professions and the emerging convention”,with the Japan Foundation's support. 


Jacques, Anne-Marie and Vaughan

Philippe's research interests involve Franco-Japanese comparisons of nursing profession. Philippe presented with Maryse and Tetsu a hypothesis that the civic and industrial conventions have been dominant in the French health care system,  the civic and domestic conventions in the Japanese system.
Anne-Marie has been studying "the invisible personnel", aides, in hospitals, and Vaughan is interested in executive nurses' coordination in hospitals.
Jacques proposed some methodological points for conducting researches with a small sample.


Philippe

Maryse, Florent and César

                                                                  
Florent has proposed the new theory of professions. The LEST has accumulated comparative studies in France, Germany and Japan. How can we develop the Societal Analysis after Marc Maurice's work?
César's research involves Franco-Japanese comparisons of professional journalists.
The emerging convention focuses on a kind of social network?

Cabinet infirmier Aix Les Milles

Philippe et Tetsu ont rencontré deux infirmières libéraux à Aix Les Milles. On a parlé des questions des trajectoires et des relations du travail.




Les infirmières libéraux travaillent 50 heures par semaine et elles gagnent plus que les infirmières hospitalières. À Aix Les Milles, l'association fonctionne pour que les clients cherchent bien les infirmières libéraux.

L'entrée d'un passage

Tout comme on le voit dans le film "Hiroshima mon amour" 1959, une femme et un homme se baladent dans un passage. Aujourd'hui, une boutique française Hermes s'est installée dans ce passage.
