A powerful theory of the symbolic embedded within a remarkable and original theory
of practice is a nodal aspect of the work of Pierre Bourdieu, who was a leading social
thinker of our times (1930-2002). Against the backdrop of the significance of symbolic
practice in social life, this book explains the intellectual warp and woof of his
theory of the symbolic; presents a brief excursus that explores its potential to illuminate
social contexts other than those in which it was conceived; examines its links with
Bourdieu's role of social critic and public intellectual; and engages critically with
scholarly assessments of his contribution. The book thus seeks to provide a comprehensive
and in depth analysis and understanding of a central dimension of Bourdieu's work
