文化资本的作用有多大——就《农民工》的资本问题与作者商榷

How Much the Effect of Cultural Capital——Discussing the Capital of the Migrant Workers with Its Author

长篇小说《农民工》提出了一向为人所忽略的农民工的文化资本问题,对于相对来说缺少知识和技术的农民工,作者认为他们的资本是在乡土社会所形成的伦理文化,这种文化资本为他们获取经济资源提供了很好的帮助,促使他们创业成功。然而这种认识显然夸大了文化资本的作用,遮蔽了农民工面临的其它重要问题,文章对此作了一定探讨,希望能促进对农民工问题的研究。

Lack of enough cultivation and technology,the only wealth they own is the ethic culture formed in their local community.This kind of capital may supply a positive foundation for their lives in cities,and help them get economic benefits.As soon as this cultural capital differs or gets lost,migrant workers are distorting it.This paper discusses the above problem,through analysis on the novel migrant workers.
