Collegiality is a research area of interest. I have looked at this issue as it related to professionalism within nursing, a female dominated profession.<\/p>\n
My first survey in 1994, some 19 years ago, provided data that started the process in the area of collegial .<\/p>\n
The analysis from my data provided original and multiple insights about contemporary female occupational cultures. It is disheartening to find out from colleagues (Lister, 2013; Brinkert, 2010) how women\u2019s work environments are at a decline in many ways. The implication of work milieu in current research associates this environment with negative professional behaviours and quality of patient care.<\/p>\n
Most mainstream studies on the nursing profession\u00a0\u2013 usually the only available texts \u2013 tend to adopt a simplistic framework of \u201cproblems and prospects\u201d, whereas my research has assembled data regarding the unhealthy contradictions perpetrated by the professional\/ collegial values\u00a0and routine practices. Here, however, we see the social reproductions of institutionalized injustice, notably the ethos of white superiority. The silent voices of the \u201cracialized\u201d others speak loudly to the dominant culture\u00a0of compliance that is protected in self-serving professions. Rather than debunk mythologies, I consider those themes that have been woefully overlooked in studies of professions\u2014social justice. Justice, an increasingly significant theme in public policy and multicultural programs, provides a direction that is long overdue in addressing micro conflicts within macro contexts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
