EA. sehr guter Zustand, 96 S., Klappenbroschur verlagsvergr.; aus soziologischer, psychologischer und politischer Perspektive wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie es heute mit der Elitebildung beschaffen ist, die Bourdieu seinerzeit in "La distinction" bei der französischen Gesellschaft analysierte. Gelten diese Normen noch, haben sie sich - und wenn wie - gewandelt, und was einigt nach wie vor die gesellschaftliche Crème de la Crème? Im Zentrum stehen Habitus und Strategien zur Elitebildung. Networking als Methode, die die Ober- von den anderen Schichten abhebt. Elitenetzwerke werden nicht durch Bildung ersetzt. Das entlarvt die Illusionen des Bildungsbürgers. Entscheidend ist die ökonomische Bedeutung von Beziehungen, also die Fragen: Wen kennt man? Wer kann mir nützlich sein? U. a. analysiert der Philosoph Gerhard Fröhlich, welchem Symbolkapital die heutigen Aufsteiger nachjagen, und der Netzwerk-Experte Harald Katzmair zeigt, wie sich Eliten gegenseitig unterstützen.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This is not a style, nor an anti-style, guide.This is an interrogation of the importance we place on 'good' and 'bad' taste in a culture saturated by imagery, and the dangerous impact this has on our identities, communities and politics. From the food we eat to the way we spend our free time, Olah exposes the rigid hierarchies that uphold this age-old dichotomy to reveal exactly who benefits - and who loses.Bold, original and provocative, Bad Taste is a revelatory exploration of the intersection between consumerism, class, desire and power. It is a rousing call-to-arms to break free from the restrictive ways we see those around us.'One of the sharpest social critics of the post-crash era' Sarah Jaffe, author of Work Won't Love You Back'A moving call to break free from the tyranny of the dominant taste' The Nation'Reading this book will shift your perspective' The Big Issue'Olah's observations make for deliciously uncomfortable reading' TLS.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: Distinction, London School of Economics (Sociology), course: Cultural Theory, language: English, abstract: The categories of real and symbolic, material and meaning have for a long time bothered not only cultural theorists but also prominent philosophers (e.g. Hegel, 1979; Heidegger, 1978) and sociologists (e.g. Baudrillard, 1983, 1993). Often the relationship between the two has been characterised in terms of 'opposition', 'contrast' or 'incompatibility'. It can, however, be argued that this theorizing has - at least in cultural theory which is the strand of discourse that is dealt with in this paper - been replaced by a 'unity'. More precisely, it is practice theory that has in several ways overcome the opposition and replaced it with an 'inclusive view' (e.g. Reckwitz (2002); Shove&Pantzar (2005)). Going beyond the debate of 'practice theory' in its different forms (comparing for example Bourdieu with Schatzki) and also exceeding the comparison of practice theory with other forms of cultural theory (see Reckwitz (2002) for an overview), this paper will make two arguments: First of all, if we focus on the more recent forms of practice theory (what Postill (2010) calls the 'second wave'), it is indeed possible to abolish the above oppositions in favour of an inclusive notion of practice regarding material and meaning. We will try to provide a common theoretical understanding of practice in the first part of the following essay. Secondly, the main part of this paper consists of an applied case study, the 'Revolution of the Practice of Payment'. We follow the approach developed by Shove and Pantzer (2005) towards Nordic walking in order to depict the development of payment practices from coin and paper to plastic money. In the last chapter of this paper, however, we will debate the notion whether it should do so. In this critical part, we will take into account arguments formulated on the one hand from material culture studies and on the other from language and representation studies in relation to payment practices in particular. Without questioning the general claim of practice theory, we show two alternative ways of describing payment. On the one hand we argue in the tradition of Shell and Baudrillard that payment became already with the advancement of paper money inherently immaterial and symbolic, whereas following Miller's material studies on the other hand, payment will always be deeply linked to materiality - even in its most immaterial forms.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Sociology - Religion, grade: 1,7, University of Tubingen (Institut für Soziologie), course: Social Stratification, language: English, abstract: Scholars have been investigating the relationship between religion and socioeconomic status ever since Weber's work on the economic consequences of the Protestant work ethic. However, most modern day social stratification researchers focus on the three 'classic' forms of inequality - race, class and gender - and religion as a factor, which influences the social and economical chances of an individual is often overlooked. It is argued, that modern societies are increasingly secular, and therefore religion lost its importance in public life.While this is in general true for most western societies it has only limited validity for the United States. Furthermore, in recent times, a religious backlash, capturing sections of society, can be an examined in many parts of the world. It is also argued, that religious affiliation is a matter of personal choice. Research on the religious field recently focused on religion as a part of the lifestyle of an individual - or on sects, new religions and fundamentalism. In this context, religion is often rather seen as a result of a specific social status than its cause. Bourdieu argues, that in every class, religion has a different symbolic and function. Higher classes have the tendency, to emphazise a more rationalized approach towards religion. For lower classes on the other hand, religion just not only play a bigger a role in everyday life, but they have a more mystical conception of religion as well. Following this argumentation, it may be true, that being determines consciousness. But in this paper, I will understand 'a religion' not as an individual ideology, which is highly dependent on one's social status, but as a (official) social group. In this understanding, religion is the basis of group affiliation and an important component of people's identities. Only when this distinction is made, the contradiction can be resolved, that the more affluent and educated religious groups have a lower church attendance, while at same time affluent and educated individuals within a religious group have a higher church attendance - and that people who are not affiliated to any religious group, have an income and educational level which is about the same than the national average.

Originalbroschur. Zustand: Gut. 435 S. Pierre Bourdieu defines the literary field as a social microcosm shaped by permanent struggles over recognition and prestige. As a consequence, being different from others in the field represents a social effect that results from the efforts made by agents to claim and defend their position and/or to mark off the position of other peers from their own. The present study explores strategies of distinction in the field of twentieth-century American poetry by tracing the means and meanings of nomenclatures. Drawing on as well as expanding Bourdieu's theoretical framework, this volume argues that nomenclatures can and should be understood as symbolic stakes in the conflict between twentieth-century poetic avant-gardes and the poetic establishment. Assembling a diverse corpus of metatexts, the book examines the ways in which nomenclatures (such as, for instance, the epithets 'experimental', 'new', and 'open') were strategically invested with distinctive, that is, conflicting and contradictory, meanings by opposing factions in the field of American poetry throughout the twentieth century.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - »Bourdieus Analyse des kulturellen Konsums und des Kunstgeschmacks ist trotz der hohen Anforderungen, die sie an den Leser stellt, nicht bloß für Sozialwissenschaftler, Kunstschaffende und Philosophen von Interesse, sondern für alle, die geneigt sind, ihre eigenen, meist als selbstverständlich aufgefaßten kulturellen Vorlieben und Praktiken zu prüfen. Auch wenn in unserem Land die Kultur einen weitaus geringeren Stellenwert hat als in Frankreich und die westdeutschen Klassenunterschiede weniger augenscheinlich sind als die französischen, sind doch die Strukturen der Distinktion überraschend ähnlich. Der Reiz und auch das Verdienst des Buches liegen darin, daß Bourdieu immer im Kontakt zur konkreten Alltagswirklichkeit bleibt. Dafür sorgen schon die zwischen die schwierigen theoretischen Ausführungen und die Masse des empirischen Materials häufig eingeschobenen Fallbeispiele. Sie laden den Leser zur Identifikation ein, so daß er nicht bloß außenstehender Beobachter bleibt, sondern sich selbst als Gegenstand der Analyse entdeckt. Dadurch wird die Lektüre der Feinen Unterschiede für alle, die sich darauf einlassen wollen, zu einem spannenden Selbsterfahrungsprozeß.« Joachim Weiner.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Bachelor Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Sociology - Consumption and Advertising, grade: 1,0, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano , language: English, abstract: In this Bachelor-thesis the consumption of convenience food of German households isanalysed from the perspective of sociology of consumption. At first three theoreticalconceptions are presented and discussed which serve as a basis for the empirical analysis thatis undertaken later.The first conception is made up by Pierre Bourdieu's analysis of consumption behaviour ofthe French society in the 1960s. His book, Distinction: A Social Critique of Taste, shall beseen as the methodological starting point for the later empirical research. FollowingBourdieu's findings, this led to the question whether substantial class differences in theconsumption of convenience food are detectable in German society. George Ritzer's thesis,The McDonaldization of Society, and its key terms Efficiency, Calculability, Predictability,and Control further argue in favour for the choice of convenience food. The third theoreticalpillar is the conception of lifeworld and its development in the field of philosophy andsociology. The empirical part uses an arrangement of German households in family lifeworlds,as it is also done by the German Society for Consumer Research. The analysed empirical dataon purchasing behaviour was provided by the market research study Typology of Desires2010.After analysis based on standing in society, phase of life, and household composition,'Students/ Apprentices' and 'Unemployed/ Working Poor' resulted as the lifeworlds with thestrongest consumption of convenience food. The initial question in the direction of a socialdetermination of consumption of convenience food must be negated. Instead can be arguedthat consumption is strongly determined by the phase of life, and partially by social status insociety and household composition.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Master's Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Sociology - Political Sociology, Majorities, Minorities, grade: Distinction, University of Glasgow (Department of Sociology, Anthropology and Applied Social Sciences), 45 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Based on results from previous empirical studies, which highlighted the relatively disadvantaged situation of descendents of Turkish migrants on the labour market inGermany (compared to descendents of natives and migrants from other countries of origin), this dissertation aims to gain further insights in the underlying reasons for these disadvantages. It aims to do so by first introducing a new concept - called the' Resource Base' - which is derived from elements of Bourdieu's work on cultural and social capital as well as Coleman's and Becker's notes on human capital and social capital.This concept is then used to investigate potential causes for the disadvantageous labour market positions of descendents of Turkish migrants by focusing on thei rtransitions from school to the labour market and the impact of these transitions on their individual Resource Base, as well as the impact of the Resource Base on labour market success. This investigation employs quantitative methods (logistic regression, cluster analysis and chi square tests) and a quantitative data set - the German Socio Economic Panel survey. The research also utilises graphical representation of different types of youth biographies in comparative life course charts.Results include detailed insights into the differential acquisition of relevant resources by each group (descendents of migrants from Turkey and other countries, as well as native Germans) and the negative impact of the lack of these resources on labour market success. It is further suggested that the Resource Base model can be used to identify discrimination regulations and practices, advancing the model as a us.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book provides a nuanced account ofcultural competence, knowledge and skills illustrated in distinctive tastein the middle and upper classes in Dublin, Ireland (Bourdieu, 1984, 1986). It highlights how the development ofcultural taste at a young age is linked to cultural participation in later life. Inspired by work that captures the textured social cartography of distinctive cultural taste (Bennett, Emmison & Frow, 1999; Bennett, Savage, Silva, Warde, Gayo-Cal & Wright, 2009), this researchcharts the changing nature of cultural participation in Dublin, Ireland and shows how cultural consumption has broadened from the narrow range of traditional high art forms towards one which grazes across the general register of culture. As elsewhere, this omnivorous, broad and pluralistic cultural palette has not altered patterns of distinction in cultural participation, rather it belies an emerging cultural capital profile - one where art form boundaries have collapsed but social boundaries and cultural distinction remains intact. Through interviews with two age cohorts (18-24yrs) and (45-54yrs) in Dublin in 2019, this research shows how the dominant class, through histories of cultural exposure have developedcultural taste and competence that is remarkably enduring.Reviewing available data on arts attendance and cultural participation in Ireland today, this texthighlights how years of cultural familiarity allow individuals to exert a cultural dominance that facilitates class to be performed obliquely. It also demonstrates howexistingsurveys reinforce traditional ways of seeing with 'art' considered highbrow, formal and valued while culture is domestic, informal and less valued in the eyes of polity. This view informs Irish arts strategy and policy, ultimately reinforcing that 'ways of seeing' and policy perspectives, do matter (Berger, 1972).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Pädagogik - Schulpädagogik, einseitig bedruckt, Note: 1,0, Universität Erfurt (Erziehungswissenschaftliche Fakultät), Veranstaltung: Bildungssystem der BRD , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Das erstaunlich schlechte Abschneiden Deutschlands im Vergleich zu anderen Ländern bei den PISA- Studien von 2000 und 2003, führte zu einem verstärkten Interesse am deutschen Bildungssystem und der allgemeinen Bildungsbeteiligung. In dieser Studie wurden Kenntnisse und Fähigkeiten 15- jähriger Schüler parallel gemessen. Die Ergebnisse von PISA zeigten, dass in Deutschland, stärker als in jedem anderen Land, die soziale Herkunft über die jeweiligen Bildungschancen entscheidet. Bereits während der Bildungsreform in den sechziger und siebziger Jahren wurde die Frage diskutiert, inwiefern sich die soziale Herkunft eines Schülers auf dessen schulischen Leistungen und spätere berufliche Chancen auswirken kann. Da es in dieser Bildungsreform um die Öffnung und Expansion des Bildungssystems ging, hatte man sich zum Ziel gesetzt, die allgemeinen Chancenungleichheiten in der Gesellschaft zu beseitigen. Man konnte jedoch nur erreichen, dass durch die Bildungsreform die allgemeinen Bildungschancen generell erhöht wurden. Die Beseitigung der problematischen, schichtspezifischen Ungleichheiten konnte nicht bewirkt werden. In der folgenden Arbeit soll der Frage nachgegangen werden, inwieweit noch heute solche schichtspezifischen Ungleichheiten in Bezug auf die Bildung vorherrschen und inwiefern die Bildungschancen von der jeweiligen Herkunft der Schüler abhängig sind. Da sich der Soziologe Pierre Bourdieu in seinem Hauptwerk La Distinction beziehungsweise Die feinen Unterschiede mit dem Thema der gesellschaftlichen Ungleichheit auseinandergesetzt hat, möchte ich in der Arbeit außerdem verdeutlichen, inwieweit dessen Theorie in der Praxis umgesetzt wird. Daher werde ich zu Beginn die theoretischen Überlegungen Bourdieus zum ökonomischen, kulturellen und sozialen Kapital kurz erläutern. Daraufhin werde ich mich immer wieder auf Bourdieus Aussagen und Thesen stützen, um den Zusammenhang zwischen sozialem Herkunftsmilieu und den Bildungschancen anschaulich darstellen zu können.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2003 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Soziales System, Sozialstruktur, Klasse, Schichtung, einseitig bedruckt, Note: k. A., Eberhard-Karls-Universität Tübingen (Institut für Soziologie), Veranstaltung: Hauptseminar: Soziale Schichtung und Lebensstile, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der deutschsprachigen Soziologie bzw. Sozialstrukturanalyse ist seit Beginn der achtziger Jahre eine bemerkenswerte Aktualität des Lebensstilbegriffes zu registrieren. Das liegt nicht zuletzt an dem im Jahr 1979 erschienenen Buch La distinction. Critique sociale du jugement von Pierre Bourdieu, das 1982 mit dem Titel Die feinen Unterschiede - Kritik der gesellschaftlichen Urteilskraft ins Deutsche übersetzt wurde. Im Mittelpunkt dieser Arbeit steht der Versuch, Bourdieus Lebensstilkonzept nachzuzeichnen und verständlich zu machen. Dabei berücksichtige ich das oben genannte Buch, welches eine große Anzahl empirischen Materials zur Thematik enthält. Im folgenden zweiten Kapitel werde ich Bourdieus Methode der Untersuchung erläutern, indem ich u. a. seinen dazu verwendeten Fragebogen inhaltlich darstelle. Bourdieus allgemeine Erklärung gesellschaftlicher Wirklichkeit geht von zwei analytisch zu trennenden, tatsächlich aber ineinander verschachtelten Räumen aus, nämlich dem Raum der sozialen Positionen und dem durch symbolische Praktiken repräsentierten Raum der Lebensstile. Diese beiden Räume' werde ich im dritten und vierten Kapitel ausführlich vorstellen. In den Abschnitten des vierten Kapitels erfolgt die Darstellung der Lebensstile der herrschenden, mittleren und unteren Klasse der Pariser Bevölkerung in den 60er Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book offers a solution for the problem of structure and agency in sociological theory by developing a new pair of fundamental concepts: metric and nonmetric. Nonmetric forms, arising in a crowd made out of innumerable individuals, correspond to social groups that divide the many individuals in the crowd into insiders and outsiders. Metric forms correspond to congested zones like traffic jams on a highway: individuals are constantly entering and leaving these zones so that they continue to exist, even though the individuals passing through them change. Building from these concepts, we can understand 'agency' as a requirement for group identity and group membership, thus associating it with nonmetric forms, and 'structure' as a building-up effect following the accumulation of metric forms. This reveals the contradiction between structure and agency to be a case of forced perspective, leaving us victim to an optical illusion.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book offers unique insights into elite Nigerian parents' engagement with, and use of, the international secondary education market as they attempt to retain their social standing - via their children - under today's shifting global conditions.Throughout, the book tackles two important, albeit uncomfortable questions: Why does whiteness hold the highest possible value in postcolonial societies such as Nigeria And, more importantly, why do black people accept the hegemonic discourse that West/white is best Combining the theoretical frameworks of Pierre Bourdieu and Frantz Fanon, the book reveals 'Whiteness' as a highly valuable form of cultural and symbolic capital that plays a crucial role in the formation of, and struggle for, elite status and distinction in modern-day Nigeria. Drawing on rare qualitative data sets along with postcolonial literatures, the book reveals how British whiteness is used by those working at and for British private schools in Nigeria (BPS-NIG) as an informal but powerful mechanism of 'quality' control, and in constructing the image of 'world-class' educational establishments.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Taste is an enigmatic topic. We recognize that taste plays an important role in our life in that everything we buy and many things we do are governed by our sense of taste. But what exactly is taste How do we get our sense of taste and how does it affect our everyday lives Does it evolve as we grow older or is it a constant in our lives Is it affected by all the 'influencers' to whom we are exposed as we watch TikTok and commercials, or do influencers merely spark some kind of inner sense of taste that was with us all the time Is our taste based on our social and economic status or something else What role do income and cost have in determining what we choose to buy What role do the qualities of what we buy and the choices we make shape our decisions Is taste based on logical thinking about things we wish to do or buy upon emotions we have generated by things like identification, status, or cultural imperatives Taste always involves some element of choice, because if there is no choice, taste is irrelevant or moot. But what are the determinants when we compare things to buy or get or do when we have choices to make This book takes its point of departure from the work of the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu, whose book 'Distinction' is considered a classic work of sociological analysis. The topics dealt with are shown in the table of contents below. The book is distinctive in that it offers discussions of four methodologies/theories used in discussing taste: semiotics, psychoanalytic theory, sociological theory and Marxist theory and then applies these theories in the second part of the book to a variety of topics involving taste, such as yogurt, dogs, the singer Celine Dion, ocean cruises, brands, smartphones, men's facial hair, and so on. Readers of the book will learn four methodologies they can use in analyzing taste and see how these methodologies were applied.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Kultur, Technik, Völker, Note: 1,0, Bergische Universität Wuppertal, Veranstaltung: Geschichte und Systematik der Medienproduktion, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Als 1979 Bourdieus La distinction. Critique sociale du jugement (Die feinen Unterschiede.Kritik der gesellschaftlichen Urteilskraft, 1987) erschien, war dies imGroßen und Ganzen ein der Öffentlichkeit präsentierter, empirischer Beleg seinerHabitus-Theorie, die sich als sein Lebenswerk verstehen lässt. Durch seine ethnologischenStudien im französisch besetzten Algerien der 50er und 60er Jahre wurdeBourdieu auf die gesellschaftlichen Unterschiede aufmerksam, die sich in dersozialen Praxis der Bevölkerungsmitglieder äußerten. So gut wie gar nicht vomrationalen Geist der westlichen Industrienationen erfasst, schienen die Handlungender kabylischen Bauern völlig anderen Regeln zu folgen, wie sie der jungeFranzose von seiner Heimat kannte. Dieses Erlebnis kann wohl als der Zeitpunktgelten, in dem aus dem studierten Philosoph auch ein Soziologe wurde. Wiederzurück in Frankreich folgte Bourdieu nun der Hypothese, dass sich ähnliche Verhaltensunterschiedenicht nur zwischen Gesellschaften, sondern auch innerhalbeiner Gesellschaft finden müssten, insbesondere, wenn derselben eine ausgeprägtesoziale Hierarchie zugrunde liegt. So fand er denn auch heraus, dass die Besetzungsozialer Positionen innerhalb der französischen Gesellschaft nicht zufällig ist,sondern eng mit der Verfügung über bestimmte Kapitalien, maßgeblich ökonomischerund kultureller Art, zusammenhängt. Diese Kapitalien, über die ein Individuumvermittels sozialer Beziehungen (soziales Kapital) beispielsweise innerhalbder Familie verfügen kann, tragen maßgeblich zum schulischen Erfolg und damitwiederum zur Vermehrung des kulturellen Kapitals bei, welches seinerseits inForm von Bildungstiteln und Berufsabschlüssen den Zugang zum ökonomischenKapital bestimmt. Dies hielten Bourdieu und Passeron 1964 in Les héritiers. Lesétudiants et la culture fest, einer Studie zum französischen Bildungssystem. So gesehenist es bei Weitem keine neue Erkenntnis, wenn in Deutschland angesichtsder Ergebnisse der letzten PISA-Studien auf die Korrelation von sozialer Herkunftund Bildungsweg aufmerksam gemacht und angesichts der 'Entdeckung' einesabgehängten Prekariats von vererbter Armut gesprochen wird.[.].
