The purpose of this study is to find out Bourdieu's thoughts, as an introduction to understanding social reality. This study introduces the basic ideas of Bourdieu's thinking in understanding how individuals relate to form "practices". How does this "practice" occur and what is "involved" in that "practice", and what are the relations of habitus, arena, capital, practice and power in Bourdieu's view. The results of this study show that Pierre Bourdieu is one of the leading theorists whose ideas are used in cultural studies. Bourdieu's thinking was heavily influenced by Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, Hegel, Marx, Durkheim, Max Weber, Picasso, Franz Fanon, Jean Paul Sartre, Husserl, Ferdinand de Saussure, Levi Strauss, Wittgenstein, Martin Heidegger, Michel Foucault, etc. The conclusion of the research is that Bourdieu concocted the thoughts of several thinkers into a new form of thinking that emphasizes the role of actors or subjectivity, which is known as the structural-constructive method. Bourdieu is known for developing cultural sociology studies and reflective sociology or metasociology.   Keywords: Thoughts of Pierre Bourdieu

Foucault is highly interested in examining how knowledge and power interact. There is no power exercise that does not result in knowledge, and there is no knowledge that does not take into account power interactions. Modern people are born as the objects and subjects of power nets that distribute and provide for them, according to Foucault. One of the most amazing philosophers is Michel Foucault. His capacity for thought is limitless. His ideas have influenced everything from history, philosophy, social and political sciences, to the medical industry, which his family works in. Because the conclusions of his thinking ran counter to the prevailing modernist theories of the period, Foucault is frequently referred to as a post-modernist, post-structuralist, or even a philosopher. However, he rejected all of these labels. Foucault's interest in themes of humanity, marginality, abnormality, and his conception of truth are key strengths of his ideas. This essay covers Foucault's core ideas on knowledge, power, discipline, and law.   Keywords: Discipline, Knowledge, Law, Power
