he Sociology of Culture and Cultural Studies: A Critique is a book by Pierre Bourdieu, a French sociologist and philosopher. The book was published in 1992 by Sage Publications. The book is a critical examination of the field of cultural studies, which Bourdieu argues is dominated by a narrow and ideological conception of culture that ignores the social and historical conditions of its production and reproduction. Bourdieu proposes a more comprehensive and scientific approach to the study of culture, based on his concepts of habitus, field, and capital. He also analyzes the role of intellectuals and cultural producers in the struggle for symbolic power and legitimacy in the cultural field. The book consists of four chapters, each dealing with a different aspect of the critique of cultural studies. The book is intended for students and scholars of sociology, cultural studies, and social theory.
