内容简介

No judgement of taste is innocent - we are all snobs. Pierre Bourdieu’s Distinction brilliantly illuminates the social pretentions of the middle classes in the modern world, focusing on the tastes and preferences of the French bourgeoisie. First published in 1979, the book is at once a vast ethnography of contemporary France and a dissection of the bourgeois mind. In the course of everyday life we constantly choose between what we find aesthetically pleasing, and what we consider tacky, merely trendy, or ugly. Taste is not pure. Bourdieu demonstrates that our different aesthetic choices are all distinctions - that is, choices made in opposition to those made by other classes. This fascinating work argues that the social world functions simultaneously as a system of power relations and as a symbolic system in which minute distinctions of taste become the basis for social judgement.

作者简介

Pierre Bourdieu (1930–2002) was one of France’s leading sociologists. Champion of the anti-globalization movement, his work spanned a broad range of subjects, from ethnography to art, and education to television.

精彩书评

Bourdieu's analysis transcends the usual analysis of conspicuous consumption in two ways: by showing that specific judgments and chokes matter less than an esthetic outlook in general and by showing, moreover, that the acquisition of an esthetic outlook not only advertises upper-class prestige but helps to keep the lower orders in line. In other words, the esthetic world view serves as an instrument of domination. It serves the interests not merely of status but of power. It does this, according to Bourdieu, by emphasizing individuality, rivalry, and 'distinction' and by devaluing the well-being of society as a whole.--Christopher Lasch "Vogue "

　近来，消费问题越来越受到学界的关注。而以消费为研究对象的消费社会学在社会科学界的地位日趋看好也是很自然的事。说起消费社会学的发展，凡勃伦、布迪厄都是不得不重点加以探讨的扛鼎级学者。可以这么说，凡勃伦是消费社会学的开山祖师，而布迪厄则是当代消费社会学的奠基人。

对于炫耀性消费的概念，凡勃伦是在将其与“炫耀性有闲”（conspicuous leisure）的对比中作出的。他认为“两者所以同样具有博取荣誉这个目的上的功用，是由于所共有的浪费这个因素。在前一情况下所浪费的是时间和精力，在后一情况下所浪费的是财物。”[3] 对于消费是否属于浪费现象，凡勃伦认为“关键问题是在于它是否直接有助于整个人类生活的提高，是否在非个人性质的意义下，有助于生活过程的推进。”[4] 布迪厄并未对炫耀性消费下任何操作定义。代之，他提出消费就是一场符号斗争，符号斗争即分类斗争的口号。这种鉴赏力使对象分类，也使分类者分类。

假如我们意识到人的生命是宇宙中的一个微小的瞬间，那么，用来计算的生命就不会像我们想象的那般重要。何必以心跳来衡量生命呢？如果生命如此依赖心脏跳动这一极不可靠的人体机能，那么生命就实在太脆弱了，我们唯一可以绝对依赖的只有死亡。人的生命与漫长的永恒相比只是短暂的一瞬。——约翰麦克唐纳
