Pierre Bourdieu. First Erving Goffman Prize Lecture (1996, Berkeley). In English 

The Best Sociologist since long time.

Great Video!! Thanks so much for digging that up. As a non-french speaker this is the first time I was able to listen directly to PB :)

Thank you for uploading this!

I recommend to buy his books. Support directly the actor himself who have spent so much of his time to give us the knowledge. Directly from himself without any second interpretation. I understand that some people have troubles to understand him but…It’s academic language, it’s very difficult to understand. It’s academic sociology terminology. Anyway! Thanks for shearing. It’s wonderful to hear him. I whisk one day I could ask some questions 🤯🧠🙌 I’m studying social work in Norway and we have another causes of social problems. Here it’s easier to prevent but we will see if some of my colleagues will prevent too. Many social problems had we solve if we sol social workers had more focus in the help/prevention as earlier as possible.

Didn't expect Mr. Bourdieu to be so lovable. Like him!!

Wow what a gem, thank you so much.

Holy crap. I cant believe I actually studied there. What a legend...

thanks

This is gold

kurban olsunlar ya canım Bourdieu'm

Can someone add an English subtitle to the video, please?

who would thought he left us 8 years later

Including an announcement by Wacquant right as Bourdieu finished his talk

Professor Bore Doo

I've tried to find a transcription online. No joy perhaps due to the Google algorithms being subverted. Just took me straight to to the Clinton Foundation donate page.

As is sometimes possible with Bourdieu can we extrapolate from the example of gender domination to world systems type hegemony of an oligarchy over a population?

I wish his lecture had been in French, it would have been far more intelligible. Sadly most Americans including "scholars" are monolingual.

Doesn't make any sense

quel accent désagréable qui complique la compréhension !

His nervousness explains why he was so critical of the social order. A shame for me as I came here, after reading many of his books, hoping to see a coherent theorist, not a fumbling anxiety case. Status anxiety. Very annoyingly simple.
