Abstract Submission
Abstract submission is CLOSED.
The objective of the International Conference is to bring together scholars interested in the critical, relational and reflexive analysis of educational inequality from a Bourdieusian perspective, comprising a wide range of areas of inquiry:
- Theoretical approaches to unpick the complexities of contemporary mechanisms of educational inequalities
- Classical Bourdieusian conceptual tools to study educational inequalities (e.g. habitus, capital, field)
- Expansion of less frequently explored Bourdieusian concepts (e.g. doxa, hysteresis, social magic)
- Combination of Bourdieu’s theory with other theoretical perspectives (e.g. intersectional approaches, postcolonial theories, affect studies)
- Methodological approaches to examine the utility of the Bourdieusian analytical tools for the study of educational inequalities
- Relational thinking in the study of educational inequalities
- Methodological challenges for the Bourdieusian study of experiences, practices and processes
- Qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods approaches to study educational inequalities
- Empirical approaches to explore the relationships between educational and social inequalities across different national educational systems, political and institutional contexts
- Experiences of educational opportunities and inequalities (e.g. subjectivities, embodiment, aspirations)
- Practices of educational opportunities and inequalities (e.g. schooling, pedagogical practices, elite production)
- Politics of educational opportunities and inequalities (e.g. policies, institutions, discourses)
