Abstract

Fields, capitals, habitus: these are undoubtedly the three key concepts of Pierre Bourdieu's sociology, shaping his analyses of cultural, scientific, economic and political fields, and of the relations between them. While drawing on their more general currency, our concerns in this study focus on the roles these concepts have played in Bourdieu's cultural sociology. Even here, there are two main aspects to each of these concepts depending on whether it is their application to the analysis of cultural consumption or that of cultural production that is at issue.
