Cultural Analysis and Bourdieu's Legacy by Elizabeth Silva

This edited collection of essays exploring the achievements and limitations of a Bourdieusian approach to cultural analysis and the implications for future research.

'..boasts an impressive gathering of celebrated (UK, US and French) names, explicitly juxtaposes their clashing claims on Bourdieu’s long-term legacy and thus...neatly encapsulates the current scrimmage in sociology.'-Will Atkinson, University of Bristol in Sociology, vol 46 no 1

'This collection of essays, which illustrates a wide range of opinion concerning Bourdieu’s work, is very interesting... Their book shows very concretely and convincingly that a more international and a more strictly scientific discussion is now possible.'- Julien Duval, Centre européen de sociologie et de science politique
