Where is sociology headed? Are intellectuals fading from the scene? What of language and culture? The writings of Pierre Bourdieu have made a profound impact on the direction of sociological thought and general social theory. Pierre Bourdieu′s latest work, Sociology in Question, offers an accessible yet challenging introduction to his ideas. In a series of discussions, lectures, and interviews, the range of Bourdieu′s ideas is laid out and its relation to other disciplines and other sociological schools is explored. The issues developed include the sociology of culture, leisure and taste, the intrinsic reflexivity of social science, and the role of language in society and the social sciences. Sociology in Question is important reading for students and professionals who want to stay on the cutting edge of contemporary sociology and social theory. Like his other writings, this book shakes the theoretical field of social science at its core. It invites the reader to explore a risky but fundamentally humanistic and optimistic sociology. --Anthropological Quarterly
