In this volume scholars from around the world focus on how a
Bourdieusian stance can enable a powerful socicultural and cultural
analysis of literacy education theory and practice and serve as an
effective tool in analyzing relations of hierarchy and domination.
Although there has been a growing body of Bourdieusian-inspired
research in various sectors of education, this book is the first to
present both theoretical and practical articulation of his ideas in
the field of literacy education. It brings together three major
clusters of work:
- Rethinking of the doxa of the social fields of language and
literacy education
- Explorations of alternative objectifications of educational
fields forming around cultural and linguistic minorities, new media
and technologies
- Studies on the formation of the literate habitus in homes and
classrooms, curriculum and schooling, and addresses theoretical,
policy and practical directions
Pierre Bourdieu and Literacy Education is intended for
researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in literacy
education, sociology of education, and curriculum theory, and as a
text for advanced courses in these areas.
