內容簡介
No judgement of taste is innocent - we are all snobs. Pierre Bourdieu’s Distinction brilliantly illuminates the social pretentions of the middle classes in the modern world, focusing on the tastes and preferences of the French bourgeoisie. First published in 1979, the book is at once a vast ethnography of contemporary France and a dissection of the bourgeois mind. In the course of everyday life we constantly choose between what we find aesthetically pleasing, and what we consider tacky, merely trendy, or ugly. Taste is not pure. Bourdieu demonstrates that our different aesthetic choices are all distinctions - that is, choices made in opposition to those made by other classes. This fascinating work argues that the social world functions simultaneously as a system of power relations and as a symbolic system in which minute distinctions of taste become the basis for social judgement.

精彩書評
Bourdieu's analysis transcends the usual analysis of conspicuous consumption in two ways: by showing that specific judgments and chokes matter less than an esthetic outlook in general and by showing, moreover, that the acquisition of an esthetic outlook not only advertises upper-class prestige but helps to keep the lower orders in line. In other words, the esthetic world view serves as an instrument of domination. It serves the interests not merely of status but of power. It does this, according to Bourdieu, by emphasizing individuality, rivalry, and 'distinction' and by devaluing the well-being of society as a whole.--Christopher Lasch "Vogue "

在我看來,最重要的研究主題,是想揭示的是文化、社會結構與行為之間的關係。他的主要的幾本著作都試圖去分析分層的社會等級與統治係統如何在代際間進行維持與再生産而沒有受到強有力的抵抗與有意識的識彆(斯沃茨 2006)。

凡勃倫(Thorstein Veblen)的影響主要來自於他那本《有閑階級論—關於製度的經濟研究》,該書於1899年齣版後即引起極大的轟動。當時資本主義正處在從自由資本嚮壟斷資本主義(即帝國主義)過渡的關鍵時期,工具理性四處擴張,舊的規範已經瓦解而新的規範尚未形成。社會生活中的無序、失範等現象隨處可見。而凡勃倫以其敏銳的洞察親眼目睹瞭“鍍金時代”(golded age)的人們在曼哈頓大街購築豪宅,瘋狂追逐時髦消費品。有鑒於此,凡勃倫提齣瞭“炫耀性消費”(conspicuous consumption)這一社會科學界內的不朽語。

布迪厄哲學社會學思想的代錶作,讀起來艱澀,非有一定的學術素養和英文功底肯不掉的一塊硬骨頭。書裝幀質量好,紙質手感特彆好。喜歡!
