GESSAGHI, Victoria  y  MENDEZ, Alicia. La Nobleza de Estado, algunas reflexiones a partir del trabajo de campo con elites educativas en la Argentina. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2020, n.88, pp.35-49. ISSN 1853-3523.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi88.3794.

The paper analyzes the reading conditions of Bourdieu’s book: The State Nobility in relation to two investigations that address the education of two privilege groups in Argentine society. We are interested in placing different accents to the text in question, by virtue of how some problems of the nobility resonate in the field work carried out in these investigations. Firstly, the article explores the reception that Bourdieu’s seminal work had in our field and highlights its main contributions for the study of elites in Argentina. Next, it describes the ways in which the “effect of dignity” granted by a title as conceptualized by Bourdieu in his work unfolds in our respective fields. Finally, the various ways in which, in the cases studied, capital is constructed, combined, reproduced; and the place elite schools occupies in that construction.

Palabras clave : State nobility; Bourdieu; High class; Nacional Buenos Aires Colledge; meritocracy..
