Product Description
(BOURDIEU) GRENFELL, Michael James. Pierre Bourdieu: Key Concepts. Acumen. 2008.
Paperback, 256pp., NEW, The French social philosopher Pierre Bourdieu (1930–2002) is now recognised as one of the major thinkers of the twentieth century. In a career of over fifty year Bourdieu studied a wide range of topics: education, culture, art, politics, economics, literature, politics, law, and philosophy. Throughout these studies, Bourdieu developed a highly specialised series of concepts which he referred to as his “thinking tools” that were used to uncover the workings of contemporary society. Pierre Bourdieu: Key Concepts takes a selection of his most important concepts and examines them in detail. Each chapter deals with an individual concept – Habitus, Field and Capital, etc. – in a clear and precise manner. The chapters are written so as to be of immediate use to the student with little or no previous knowledge of Bourdieu. At the same time, each chapter also develops various dimensions around each concept to make the coverage of interest to the more experienced reader of Bourdieu.
