Preferred term

cultural reproduction  

Definition(s)

  • Cultural reproduction is a concept developed primarily by the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu to describe the method by which dominant classes within an unequal society replicate and legitimate aspects of their culture. Pierre Bourdieu and other theorists argue that cultural reproduction ensures that the various forms of language, dress, art, and learning of the dominant class appear as normative to the society at large.
