PUTTING PIERRE BOURDIEU TO WORK 4
A WORKING CONFERENCE
Organizers: Mike Savage and Loïc Wacquant
Thursday-Friday 29-30 May 2008
CRESC & Sociology, the University of Manchester (UK)
Interest in using Pierre Bourdieu’s theories, methods, and findings to
investigate social change, inequality and politics continues to proliferate in
European social science as well as around the world. This workshop will be
convened by leading international scholars with interests in developing,
testing, and revising Bourdieu’s analytic tools. The workshop is an
interdisciplinary vehicle for doctoral students and post-doctoral scholars
conducting social research deploying Pierre Bourdieu’s concepts to present and
discuss their work and to learn from each other’s approaches, problems, and
solutions.
There will be five themes:
1) Mike Savage and Alan Warde (Manchester): Class, culture and consumption
2) Nick Crossley (Manchester): Body, habit, and desire in everyday life
3) Elizabeth Silva (Open University): Gender and household
4) Tony Bennett (Open University): Ethnicity and nationalism
5) Loïc Wacquant (UC-Berkeley and CSE-Paris): the state and neo-liberalism.
The workshop will follow a model initiated in doctoral workshops at New York
University (2004), University of California-Berkeley (2005), and University of
Michigan-Ann Arbor (2006). Any interested scholars grappling with germane issues
are welcome to attend and join in the discussion.
Anyone wishing to present a paper should contact
Josine.Opmeer@manchester.ac.uk
by the end of February 2008, with an indication of which of the five themes it
would be relevant to. Papers presenting work in progress are especially
encouraged (the more advanced the better). Potential contributions can be
discussed with relevant theme convenors and/or Mike Savage.

Religionen, som man i det moderne sekulære samfund troede henvist til
historiens hylder, er de senere år kommet til at fylde stadig mere i det sociale
liv. Bourdieu helligede aldrig religion samme opmærksomhed som kunst, kultur,
uddannelse osv. og publicerede ingen større empiriske undersøgelser af religiøs
praksis i stil med La distinction, Homo Academicus eller La misère du monde. På
den anden side er Bourdieus sociologi gennemsyret af termer og tankegange hentet
fra den klassiske religionssociologi og med begrebet om det religiøse felt har
han ydet et originalt teoretisk bidrag til religionsforskningen. Med Hexis’
temadag om Bourdieu og det religiøse felt er det ambitionen at belyse og
diskutere, hvordan Bourdieu kan anvendes i arbejdet med forskellige typer
religionssociologiske problemer, både generelle og specifikke, historiske og
aktuelle, hjemlige og globale.

A seminar in honour of Torsten Husén
In all countries children are at some age
diverted to separate tracks at school or do just leave it. Tracks may be
distinguished by abilities of the students, academic content, degree of
vocational training or some other aspect. The crucial question is not whether to
introduce tracks or not but at what age tracking should start and according to
which criteria tracks should be distinguished. Different forms of tracking could
be evaluated based on effects on efficiency, equity and outcome of schooling.
Three international experts will provide scientific evidence on various aspects
of school tracking: Professor Jürgen Baumert, Max- Planck-Institut für
Bildungsforschung, Berlin, Germany, Professor Eric Hanushek, Hoover Institution,
Stanford University, USA, and Professor Walter Müller, Mannheimer Zentrum für
Europäische Sozialforschung, Universität Mannheim, Germany. A panel discussion
will follow after the lectures.
Tid: 2008-11-12 09:00 - 12:30
