The French social philosopher Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002) is now
recognised as one of the major thinkers of the twentieth century.
In a career of over fifty years, Bourdieu studied a wide range of
topics: education, culture, art, politics, economics, literature,
law, and philosophy. Throughout these studies, Bourdieu developed a
highly specialised series of concepts that he referred to as his
thinking tools, which were used to uncover the workings of
contemporary society. Pierre Bourdieu: Key Concepts highlights his
most important concepts and examines them in detail. Each chapter
deals with an individual concept and are written so as to be of
immediate use to the student with little or no previous knowledge
of Bourdieu. This new edition of this widely-used text-book is
entirely revised and updated and includes new essays on Politics
and Social Space.
