Distinction: A Social Critique of the Judgement of Taste

Distinction is a groundbreaking book by Pierre Bourdieu that uncovers the hidden dynamics of social snobbery in the modern world.

This comprehensive study reveals how even everyday choices, such as clothing, furniture, and leisure activities, are influenced by social factors and become a means of distinction-making.

Through a series of surveys and analyses, Bourdieu exposes the ways in which taste is not pure but rather a reflection of one's social standing.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of social hierarchy and the role that taste plays in shaping our lives.
