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 "

“生命的意義因人而異,因日而異,甚至因時而異。因此,我們不是問生命的一般意義為何,而是問在一個人存在的某一時刻中,其特殊的生命意義為何。用總括性的措辭來迴答這個問題,正如我們去問一位下棋聖手說:大師,請告訴我在這世界上最好的一步棋如何下法?根本沒有所謂最好的一步棋,甚至也沒有不錯的一步棋,而要看弈局中某一特殊局勢,以及對手的人格形態而定。人類的存在也是如此,一個人不能去尋找抽象的生命意義,每個人都有他自己的特殊天賦或使命,而此使命是需要具體地去實現的。他的生命無法重復,也不可取代。所以每一個人都是獨特的,也隻有他具特殊的機遇去完成其獨特的天賦使命。”

那麼,何謂炫耀性消費?人們為什麼要追求炫耀性消費?在日常生活中這種消費有哪些不同的錶現形式?這種消費是沿著一個怎樣的路徑在社會上傳播開來的?這種消費行為與社會階級之間有著怎樣的關聯?哪些人或者哪些群體最有可能成為炫耀性消費者?對於上述問題,筆者將在下文中通過對凡勃倫與布迪厄的比較來一一予以解答。

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)。
