| Description: |
In 2000 Derek Robbins edited a four volume collection on Pierre Bourdieu which went on to become a great sucess. After Bourdieu died in 2002 it became very apparent that there was still much to say about this great thinker and this new collection sets out to extend the critical appreciation of his achievement and considers responses to his work that have occurred since his death. The four volumes are divided into seven sections carefully chosen by Derek Robbins, one of the best informes and stimulating critical interpreters of Bourdieu's thought.The sheer scale of Bourdieu's achievements is slowly being recognized. His work in developing relational sociology, criticizing distributive injustice and exposing how power operates amounts to one of the first-rank of major, durable contributions in post-war Sociology. He had a range of knowledge that enabled illuminating connections to be made with philosophy, sociology, culture and politics. Derek Robbins is Professor of International Social Theory, University of East London |
