{"product_id":"the-anthem-companion-to-pierre-derek-robbins-9781783085613","title":"The Anthem Companion to Pierre Bourdieu","description":"\u003cp\u003e'The Anthem Companion to Pierre Bourdieu' provides an introduction to the French sociologist's thought and an evaluation of the international significance of his work from a range of national perspectives. This volume assesses Bourdieu's work as a product of his social situation in France and, more importantly, in relation to his experience as French Algeria gained its independence. The companion then proceeds to ask how the concepts he developed can legitimately be applied to other situations. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe volume is divided into two parts, with the first devoted to aspects of Bourdieu's thought and the second discussing case-studies of the international deployment of his thought. The international list of contributors elaborate on the implications and consequences of Bourdieu's phenomenological orientation; explore the meaning of 'reflexivity' in Bourdieu's work offering, in the process, a comprehensive guide to relevant secondary literature; examine the validity of the ways in which Margaret Archer and Bernard Lahire have attempted to go beyond Bourdieu's original formulations; and spell out the implications of Bourdieu's thinking in relation to the possibility of an international social science. The contributors also provide a biometric analysis of the circulation of Bourdieu's ideas within Europe and offer interpretations of Bourdieu's work within their own national contexts rather than in terms of a shared discourse of international sociology. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Derek Robbins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1783085614\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783085613\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthem Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.81d","brand":"Derek Robbins","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44052946649343,"sku":"9781783085613","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_90445bbf-a146-4705-b52c-211c36dc3d03.jpg?v=1685021525","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-anthem-companion-to-pierre-derek-robbins-9781783085613","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
