Pierre Bourdieu e a Sociologia da Educação : aproximações ao conceito de cultura escolar

Abstract

This work aims to draw some approximations between key concepts coined by Pierre Bourdieu and the notion of "school culture". To what extent does such a notion fit into a larger whole, which could be called "culture"? From a brief bibliographical review about some notions of what the concept of culture and school culture would be or could be, together with the investigation of some works by Pierre Bourdieu, especially "Os Herdeiros: os estudantes e a cultura" (2014), written in co-authorship with Jean-Claude Passeron, in addition to some commentators, the research indicates the pertinence of the theoretical-conceptual framework forged by the author to analyze other school spaces in a perspective that recognizes, first, cultural and school inequalities and, consequently, the importance of an analytical cut in terms of social classes.
