John Dewey's theory of inquiry as a model for analyzing the professionalization processes of the individual in a work situation
Recognizing that the intelligibility of the processes involved in the professionalization of the individual through and within the activity constitutes a major scientific and social issue, this article proposes to study how John Dewey’s theory of inquiry is likely to enrich the analytical frameworks used to study this phenomenon. The aim is to show to what extent this psycho-philosophical approach to experience, developed at the beginning of the 20th century, constitutes a heuristic approach to understanding the relationship between work and the training of the individual through and within the activity.
