Bourdieu Multi Book Launch

26 September 2024

In partnership with the

AERA Bourdieu in Educational Research Special Interest Group,

Routledge Book Series ‘Bourdieu and Education of Asia Pacific’,

and the

Bourdieu and Chinese Education Group

The Centre for Research in Educational and Social Inclusion

invites you to attend the

Bourdieu Multi-Book Launch.

This book launch is part of an ongoing series dedicated to advancing Bourdieusian sociology (of education). Each launch features two recent books in the field. Our previous event attracted a global audience from across Asia, America, and Oceania. For this upcoming launch, we have timed the event to accommodate audiences from Oceania, Asia, and Europe.

The launch will showcase two books born out of longstanding intellectual discussions and debates among Bourdieusian sociologists (of education), promising a rich exchange of ideas on employing and expanding Bourdieu’s thinking tools for a better education and a fairer society. Seven authors will introduce their work, share their insights, and engage with the comments and questions from the audience.
