Bourdieu’s sociology has traditionally been confined to the
limits of its French national context. This edited collection seeks
to challenge these boundaries, applying Bourdieu’s analysis of
practice to Chinese education as it gains relevance and attention
around the globe. This book stems from the conviction that
empirical investigation and conceptual inventiveness are needed to
understand the historical and contextual particularities of
Sino-foreign higher education. It brings the sociology of Pierre
Bourdieu to the specificity of higher education in and for China
and the multi-scalar complexity of higher education beyond the
nation. Aggregating recent Bourdieu-informed investigations of
empirical worlds of Sino-foreign higher education, the volume
mainly considers two problems: structures and strategies of
advantage behind institutional and individual action in
Sino-foreign higher education; and student participation in the
practices of that higher education. The volume probes the potential
of Bourdieusian theory and methodology for understanding Chinese
higher education beyond the nation. This book is written to engage
with the intellectual work of both established scholars and higher
degree research students within China and beyond. The empirical
studies provide useful insights for educational leaders in Chinese
higher education sectors and in the universities of
English-dominant western countries where students and researchers
from China have been a growing presence. The theoretical and
methodological discussions will be pertinent to scholars who are
interested in Bourdieu’s sociology and sociology of higher
education.
