Teorie sociálních polí P. Bourdieuho – inspirace pro identifikaci podobných fenoménů

Abstract

P. Bourdieu's Theory of Social Fields -Inspiration for Identifying Similar Phenomena. One of the most influential social scientists of the 20th century prepared methodological and theoretical approaches that can also be used to identify related phenomena such as religion and spirituality. The theory is based on the two-way relationship between the social field and the habitus. The field represents the place of creation of values, application of capital, distribution of power. The field of cultural production with large-scale and restricted production is a tool for identifying the distinction between the two phenomena. Spiritually oriented people benefit from their personal experience in acquiring spirituality, and religiously oriented people rely on church institutions.
