Sommario/riassunto

EPDF and EPUB available Open Access under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. Amid debates about the future of both higher education and Europeanisation, this book is the first full-length exploration of how Europe's 35 million students are understood by key social actors across different nations. The various chapters compare and contrast conceptualisations in six nations, held by policymakers, higher education staff, media and students themselves. With an emphasis on students' lived experiences, the authors provide new perspectives about how students are understood, and the extent to which European higher education is homogenising. They explore various prominent constructions of students - including as citizens, enthusiastic learners, future workers and objects of criticism.EPDF and EPUB available Open Access under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.

Sommario/riassunto

Les grimpeurs professionnels sont présentés comme des individus talentueux qui voyagent dans le monde entier pour escalader les voies et les blocs les plus difficiles. Guillaume Dumont montre comment ils essayent de vivre de leur travail en devenant des « ambassadeurs de marque » pour des entreprises. L’auteur les suit sur les sites d’escalade jusqu’au sommet des blocs, dans leurs rencontres avec les sponsors



mais aussi dans leur vie de tous les jours. Son enquête décrit un professionnalisme aux contours flous, qui impose en réalité une multitude de tâches, pas toujours rémunérées, relevant de la marchandisation de soi. Ce faisant, il révèle les similitudes avec le travail créateur, tel qu’il est étudié dans d’autres secteurs. Il contribue ainsi aux savoirs sur les transformations du monde du travail indépendant qui touchent aujourd’hui de nombreux professionnels.
