Beskrivning

Pierre Bourdieu’s ideas have had a major impact on a number of fields of inquiry. As scholars of media and communication begin to think more frequently and more carefully with Bourdieu’s ideas, this book offers a wealth of points of contact between Bourdieu’s ideas and research topics concerning media and communication. This book addresses how Bourdieu’s ideas can be used to raise questions concerning: media production, media audiences, symbolic authority, and the history of communication study. The result is a compact but comprehensive volume that gives the reader a sense of the scope and relevance of Bourdieu’s ideas to a wide range of domains of study in communication research.

Recensioner i media

«A compelling and comprehensive account that will surely be a touchstone for future conversations about Bourdieu and media studies.» (Rodney Benson, Associate Professor of Media Studies and Sociology, New York University)«This short but incisive book provides media scholars and students with a grounding in Bourdieu’s work … Neither overstating his scope nor idealizing Bourdieu, this careful account offers a measured and therefore a valuable introduction and explication of key concepts that deserve to be part of any respectable communication scholar’s intellectual toolbox.» (Larry Gross, University of Southern California)«This is a terrific book! I thought it was beyond any one scholar to unravel the many threads of Pierre Bourdieu’s philosophically and empirically rich work and then put them together again in a synoptic account of what Bourdieu’s many insights can contribute to media and communications research in the round. But David W. Park has pulled off this remarkable feat – with great elegance and considerable scholarship. The whole field should be grateful for him!» (Nick Couldry, Professor of Media, Communications and Social Theory, LSE)
