Abstract

Die Kulturberufe gehören zu den seit Jahren expandierenden Wissensberufen und nehmen im bundesdeutschen Erwerbssystem in verschiedener Hinsicht eine Sonderstellung ein. So werden sie häufig in der Form des 'Alleindienstleisters' ausgeübt und weisen hohe Frauenanteile und Akademisierungsgrade auf. Von daher sind sie für die Frage nach 'zukunftsfähigen' Formen von Erwerbsarbeit für beide Geschlechter besonders interessant. Das Papier stellt zunächst in erwerbssoziologischer Perspektive Charakteristika der Kulturberufe in Abgrenzung zu den beiden dominanten Erwerbstypen - den 'klassischen' Professionen und dem 'verberuflichten Arbeitnehmer' - wie auch zu den traditionell feminisierten sog. Semi-Professionen dar. Gefragt wird weiter nach theoretischen Erklärungsansätzen für diesen vergleichsweise jungen Erwerbstypus. Dabei erscheint weniger die Professionstheorie als vielmehr das arbeitssoziologische Konzept des 'Arbeitskraftunternehmers' weiterführend, insofern es in subjektorientierter Perspektive Grenzverschiebungen zwischen Arbeit und Leben Rechnung trägt. In einem weiteren Schritt werden erste empirische Ergebnisse zur sozialstrukturellen Verfassung der Kulturberufe präsentiert, die ambivalente Deutungen nahe legen. So scheint einerseits Erwerbsarbeit in den Kulturberufen weniger durch Geschlechterstereotype geprägt zu sein als in den erwähnten anderen Erwerbstypen. Andererseits jedoch deuten die zu vermutenden Arrangements von Arbeit und Leben nicht unbedingt auf egalitäre Muster hin. Abschließend wird weiterer Forschungsbedarf thematisiert.
