Description
Le Sens Pratique offers a major statement of Pierre Bourdieu's theoretical approach, illustrated with examples from anthropology. This book consolidates his reputation as one of the most original and exciting theorists in the social sciences today.
Bourdieu draws on his own field work and a wide range of ethnographic and anthropological texts to unfold a theoretical perspective that balances the practical logic of everyday action with the objective structures within which such action takes place. By exploring the concept of 'habitus', Bourdieu provides a nuanced understanding of how structures and practices intersect in the ongoing conduct of everyday life.
This book is now available in paperback, making it easier to explore Bourdieu's influential ideas on social science and sociology.
