隔代无仇:布波文化融合的社会基础

Beyond Conflict: How Bobos Is out of Bourgeois and Bohemian in Culture

布尔迪厄认为阶级与文化之间是相互强化的 ,吉尔茨认为文化是传承的 ,根据这个逻辑 ,两个敌对的阶级和文化是不可能和解的。布鲁克斯提供了一个反例 ,曾经敌对的布尔乔亚和波希米亚如今已经合流为融合了二者特征的布波族 ,并因此构成了对布尔迪厄和吉尔茨命题的挑战。对布、波的分析表明 ,阶级与文化之间相互强化以及文化传承的基础是阶级的社会经济特征 ,不同社会基础的阶级之间是无法进行文化与阶级的相互强化和文化传承的 ,布波族之所以融合了布尔乔亚和波希米亚的阶级和文化特征 ,是因为它与后二者之间有着完全不同的社会基础 。

Bourdieu argued that class and culture are inter-strengthened, while Geertz concluded that culture is transferred one to another generation. Logically, conflicted two classes would not become reconciled. But Brooks gave a count-example and argued that Bobos come out of Bourgeois and Bohemian, they antagonized in more than 200 years. This paper argued that neither Bourdieu nor Geertz missed the variable of social-economic characteristics of a class and its culture. When we take the variable into account, Bobos become a new class that has not have any connection with either Bourgeois or Bohemian therefore has no conflict inter-strengthening and no conflict transferring down.
