Abstract:This article is based on data collected during a qualitative research on children's leisure practices and family socialization patterns. The paper focuses more specifically on the cross effects of gender and social class on the construction of body hexis and relationship to sports. The results show that several dimensions of family habitus must be taken into account: lifestyles, way in which parents divide the tasks of raising children and the relationship they have with social competition or gender norms. Moreover, taking these different dimensions into account must be accompanied by an analysis of the concrete modes of socialization within the family and the practice context.
Cet article s’intéresse à la construction de l’expertise sportive chez les athlètes de haut niveau. Il se fonde sur un travail d’enquête qualitative portant sur la fabrique de l’excellence athlétique. Conçues comme des épreuves structurantes et déstructurantes dans la dynamique vocationnelle des carrières sportives de haut niveau, les blessures sont appréhendées en tant qu’expériences de socialisation dont les effets sont contrastés : bien qu’elles génèrent souvent des crises de vocation qui peuvent conduire à l’érosion du sentiment de vocation, dans certaines configurations bien spécifiques, les blessures permettent également de réactiver les marques de l’élection et de renforcer le sentiment de vivre une vie extraordinaire.
