This edited collection explores the genesis of Bourdieu's classical bookDistinctionand its international career in contemporary Social Sciences. It includes contributions from contemporary sociologists from diverse countries who question the theoretical legacy of this book in various fields and national contexts. Invited authors review and exemplify current controversies concerning the theses promoted inDistinctionin the sociology of culture, lifestyles, social classes and stratification, with a specific attention dedicated to the emerging forms of cultural capital and the logics of distinction that occur in relation to material consumption or bodily practices. They also empirically illustrate the theoretical contribution ofDistinctionin relation with such notions asfieldorhabitus, which fruitfulness is emphasized in relation with some methodological innovations of the book. In this respect, a special focus is put on the emerging stream of "distinction studies" and on the opportunities offered by the geometrical data analysis of social spaces. | The Routledge Companion To Bourdieu's 'distinction' by Philippe Coulangeon, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
