Digitization And Professional Transformation: From Craft To The Virtual Profession



Authors : Alaoui Samia .

Abstract

The contemporary world is experiencing radical transformations in the nature of professions due to the digital revolution. Historically, work was linked to manual and artisanal effort and later to factories and modern industrial organizations; today it is embodied in borderless digital spaces. This transformation is not confined to technical dimensions alone, but extends to value systems and social norms that determine the position of work and its recognition. This paper aims to analyse the transition from the traditional craft to the virtual profession through a sociological approach based on tracing the historical trajectory of professions, examining the effect of digitization on professional values and anticipating the future of work in the digital society.
