Reviews

Tony Bennett (of the University of Western Sydney, Australia) is recognized in the Anglo-Saxon academic world for his work in cultural studies and museology; it has also helped to disseminate the work of Pierre Bourdieu in the UK. For his twelfth book, Tony Bennett collects and increases some texts published here and there in elegantly combining the French and British contributions in cultural sociology, ethnography, cultural studies and social theory; it is precisely this rare theoretical diversity that makes his work particularly interesting. - Yves Laberge, Recherches sociologiques et anthropologiques, Quebec
