Class Identities and the Identity of Class
TL;DR: A newer generation of class theorists have transformed the scope and analytical framework of class analysis: inflating class to include social and cultural formations, reconfiguring the causal model that has underpinned class analysis, and abandoning the notion of distinct class identities or groups, focusing instead on individualized hierarchical differentiation as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Worlds, Fields and Networks: Becker, Bourdieu and the Structures of Social Relations
Wendy Bottero,Nick Crossley +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use social network analysis to derive "positions" and "relations" between positions, as prioritized by Bourdieu, from data on concrete interactions and relations.
Book
Stratification: Social Division and Inequality
TL;DR: This paper explored how our most personal choices (of sexual partners, friends, consumption items and lifestyle) are influenced by hierarchy and social difference, and examined how hierarchy affects our tastes and leisure time activities, and who we choose (and hang on to) as our friends and partners.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intersubjectivity and Bourdieusian Approaches to ‘Identity’
TL;DR: Bourdieu's emphasis on the socialized subjectivity of habitus is increasingly used in discussions of "identity" to indicate the limits to reflexivity, situating 'identity' in tacit practice as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wendy Bottero,Kenneth Prandy +1 more
