Overview: The old saw is that the military is one of the two oldest professions in the world. Yet the study of the military as a profession has been largely overlooked in the sociological study of the professions. In this time of massive changes within the Canadian Armed Forces it is important to review the professional status of the military and the implications some of these changes will have for professionalization. Lessons from the changing nature of other professions and the growth of the new knowledge occupations may provide useful foundations for consideration of the changing nature of the "Profession of Arms" in the Canadian context.
