Kültür ve İktidar

At the core of Bourdieu's sociological research is the question of why forms of social inequality can persist without strong resistance. The answer, according to Bourdieu, is that cultural resources, practices and institutions function to maintain unequal social relations. The relationship of culture to power is at the heart of Bourdieu's intellectual project. His analysis of how culture veils class power and functions as a mediator of social divisions is invaluable to contemporary cultural sociology. In particular, his reformulation of the problem of ideology and false consciousness is one of Bourdieu's most important contributions to the study of class and power in modern societies.

David Swartz masterfully explains the world and mental expansions of Bourdieu, one of the most important sociologists of the 20th century. It examines their concepts, theoretical objections, their foundations, starting points, sometimes contradictions and historical contexts. Culture and Power is an opportunity to understand not only Bourdieu but also the current times.
