This book presents an analysis of the 'essentialist ideology',
which is inherent to class-based societies. The author argues that
essentialist ideology is efficient through its unconscious
component and is imposed on everyone. It guides school selection
and imposes on each class a language specific in its reference to
concrete domination relations. It even unbalances the scientific
objectivity of researchers in the social sciences, not only among
those who abide by the theory of natural aptitudes, but also among
its sharpest critics, such as Basil Bernstein, Pierre Bourdieu and
J C Passeron, whose work is considered in this book.
