Document Summary

Bourdieu s chapter titled structures, habitus, practices in critique of theoretical. Reason focus on what is habitus, how it is formed, how it conducts are our actions, and so on. Even though the chapter is titled structures, habitus, practices , everything is drawn back onto habitus including structures and practices. The structures may be defined as the systems that create opportunities for practice and the parts required to form habitus (again see how it all relates back to habitus). The structure may be, for example, social structures that dictate what someone may and may not do. As simple as that definition is, habitus appears to be modified and dependent on many other clauses. Habitus is derived from experiences and previous actions in the past. The correct actions done are repeated while incorrect actions are discarded and are avoided from being repeated. With enough practice a habitus becomes second nature and so forgotten as history .
