Synopsis
The idea of cultural reproduction was first developed by Bourdieu (1973) who sees the function of the education system as being to reproduce the culture of the dominant classes, thus helping to ensure their continued dominance. Through his concepts of "cultural capitalism" and "habitus", Bourdieu's influence spread into other areas of socialization and high culture. However, despite the complex of influences that contribute to Bourdieu's method, sociologists of culture and students of cultural studies seem to have picked up on the negative and critical elements in the work. In particular, they developed the metaphor of reproduction as copy or imitation rather than reproduction as regeneration and synthesis. As a consequence "cultural reproduction" has become part of the orthodoxy of studies in the theory of ideology and neo-Marxism. While still addressing this well-established theme of ideology and structural determinacy in cultural reproduction theory, this collection of original essays seeks also to explore other possibilities, in terms of ethno-methodology, Durkheimianism, structuralism and post-structuralism.

Review
"This is a stunning collection of essays. It poses some very important challenges in the debate over postmodernism; it is an invitation to sociologists and students to break free from the analytical inertia of mainstream sociological discourse. It will be a difficult book to ignore in the coming years."
-Peter McLaren, Miami University
