Abstract
This book provides an innovative cultural analysis of Pierre Bourdieu's oeuvre. Surpassing prior introductory presentations and critical discussions of his work, the book keenly exposes Bourdieu's overarching political commitment to the French Revolution and to the ideals of the Enlightenment. It is a must read for those interested in Bourdieu and for those seeking an understanding of the interplay between culture and social theory.
