International Perspectives on Theorizing Aspirations: Applying Bourdieu’s Tools: Social Theory and Methodology in Education Research

Editat de Dr Garth Stahl, Dr Derron Wallace, Dr Ciaran Burke, Dr Steven Threadgold
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 mai 2020
International Perspectives on Theorizing Aspirations offers new insights and guidance for those looking to use Bourdieu's tools in an educational context, with a focus on how the tools can be applied to issues of aspiration. Written by contributors from the UK, USA, Australia, Nigeria, Jamaica and Spain, the book explores how Bourdieu's tools have been applied in recent cutting-edge educational research on a range of topics, including widening participation, migration, ethnicity, and class. The contributors consider how aspirations are theorized in sociology, as well as exploring the structure/agency debates, before recapitulating Bourdieu's tools and their applicability in educational contexts. A key question running through the chapters is: how does social theory shape research? Including recommended readings, this is essential reading for anyone looking to use Bourdieu in their research and for those studying aspiration in an educational research setting.

Recenzii

An excellent collection of papers that not only problematises the notion of aspiration but also shows how, by drawing on the tools of Bourdieu, it is possible to develop a more nuanced understanding of its construction and usage. This book is a must read for those interested in the ideas of Bourdieu.
