Beschreibung:
Michael Burawoy is professor at the University of California, Berkley. He was President of the International Sociological Association (ISA) until 2014.
Presenting the first comprehensive attempt at a critical engagement with Pierre Bourdieu's theory as a totality, the author constructs a series of imaginary conversations between the sociologist Bourdieu and his nemesis - Marxism - from which he silently borrowed so much. The book then brings these conversations to South Africa, showing the relevance of Bourdieu's ideas to a country he never visited.
Sociology is a combat sport - Bourdieu meets Bourdieu; theory and practice - Marx meets Bourdieu; cultural domination - Gramsci meets Bourdieu; colonialism and revolution - Fanon meets Bourdieu; pedagogy of the oppressed - Freire meets Bourdieu; antinomies of feminism - de Beauvoir meets Bourdieu; intellectuals and their publics - Mills meets Bourdieu; Homo Ludens vs. Homo Habitus - Burawoy meets Bourdieu; concluding reflections.
