New economy and job market transformations: some evidences This paper looks at some effects of new economy diffusion on job market present transformations. It focuses on the diffusion of new forms of non-standard jobs, on processes of institutionalisation of new professions and on the redefinition of the traditional ones. On one side it argues that the utilisation of digital technologies modifies the skills of some professions and it allows the diffusion of non-standard job forms. This is illustrated by the Archivists case study. On the other side the non-standard job forms sometimes promote the new professions processes of institutionalisation in the new economy. This is illustraded by the Blobbists case study.
