- Description
- This chapter will examine the question of whether Bourdieu's social theory can be mobilised to understand our recent and ongoing global economic crisis. This may seem an odd question to pose on many fronts, not least because - and with the exception of markets for normatively defined cultural goods - Bourdieu's corpus is rarely, if ever, called upon to engage with strictly economic processes and formations. And this is the case despite the fact that Bourdieu dedicated a whole volume to the study of the social structures of the economy and despite the fact that in his later, arguably more polemical, work he directly engaged with the political economy of neo-liberalism, mounting a sustained critique of what he termed the 'tyranny of the neo-liberal market'.
