Written by contributors from the UK, USA, Australia, Nigeria, Jamaica and Spain, the book explores how Bourdieu's tools have been applied in recent cutting-edge educational research on a range of topics, including widening participation, migration, ethnicity, and class. The contributors consider how aspirations are theorized in sociology, as well as exploring the structure\/agency debates, before recapitulating Bourdieu's tools and their applicability in educational contexts. A key question running through the chapters is: how does social theory shape research? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Including recommended readings, this is essential reading for anyone looking to use Bourdieu in their research and for those studying aspiration in an educational research setting.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGarth Stahl\u003c\/b\u003e is Senior Lecturer at the School of Education at the University of South Australia and Research Fellow, Australian Research Council (DECRA). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eDerron Wallace\u003c\/b\u003e is Assistant Professor of Sociology and Education at Brandeis University, USA. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eCiaran Burke \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of Higher Education at the University of Derby, UK. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteven Threadgold \u003c\/b\u003eis Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Newcastle, Australia.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 28, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47415666049202,"sku":"9781350164857","price":80.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/ad53974b314a8a0713c0f770183f18f6.webp?v=1778383820","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/international-perspectives-on-theorizing-aspirations-applying-bourdieus-tools-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
