Informational capital: How it is developed and used by CSOs and EU institutions

Beschreibung

"Bourdieu's work has been a major inspiration for the analysis of processes beyond the nation state. Research has dealt with processes of transnationalisation of different kinds. Key concepts such as capital, field and symbolic dominance proved to e adequate tools fo coming terms with complex processes of national desembedding and transnational embedding. Naturally, European integration has been an object of study too. This chapter pursues this line of research by looking into the strategies and positioning of official European institutions (particularly the European Commission) and civil society organisations (CSOs) in the field of European social inclusion policy."
