Four interesting texts online from Bev Skeggs, visiting researcher in gender studies here at Umea University. I saw her seminar "Ambivalence and Class: Bourdieu's Gender Troubles" and it clarified a lot about Bourdieu's work for me. Four texts from Professor Beverly Skeggs:
Ambivalence and Class: Bourdieu's Gender Troubles
Respectability – Becoming a Proper Person
Making Class Through Moral Extension on Reality TV
The Value of Intimacy: Moral Economies on Reality TV
All this material comes via the morally decent and respectable Center for Gender Studies at the Facualty for Medicine at Umeå University.
True, she is also very nice person, lucky to be supervised by her. Cheers.
