Sumario: | Pierre Bourdieu's 'Outline of a Theory of Practice' is a seminal work in sociology and ethnology, exploring the intricate relationship between social structures and individual practices. Bourdieu critiques traditional ethnological methods and introduces key concepts like 'habitus' and 'symbolic capital' to explain how societal norms influence human behavior. His study, grounded in his experiences in Algeria, particularly focuses on the Kabyle society, offering insights into their cultural practices and social rituals. The book targets academics and students in sociology and anthropology, aiming to challenge established perspectives and encourage a critical examination of human societies.
