Review # 1 was written on 2016-03-30 00:00:00 John Henderson This was interspersed with so many citations and references back to material and works by sociologists I had never read, that it was difficult to get any information that sticks in my head! I did not like this very much at all...

Review # 2 was written on 2021-07-10 00:00:00 Nicholas Steele Another good introduction to Bourdieu's theory, espeacially his "philosophical" aspect. The first chapter, "Fieldwork in Philosophy", outlines Bourdieu's fundemental concept which is developed and become what we now known as "Theory of Practice": how he breaks with Subjectivism/Objectivism and solve the structure/agency tension. Moreover, in order to understand the "practice", he emphasizes on analyzing agents' action as inseperable from the social space around them, despite the humanism claim of disinterested in the case of artistic field, or of pure knowledge in the case of intellectual fied. These "breaks", I believe, result in a new way of seeing (and doing) philosophy, literature and science (not to mention social sciences in general). Since most of the chapters included here are the interview sessions, the language is much more penetratacle than of writtern work by Bourdieu himself.
