Through very long interviews with French and especially foreign researchers, and scientific confrontations with groups of specialists, ethnologists, economists and sociologists - of art, religion, literature, etc. -, Pierre Bourdieu, whose work has been the subject of numerous questions in recent years, explains himself: he sheds light on certain poorly understood aspects of his work, explains the philosophical presuppositions of his research, evokes the logic concrete of his investigations, at the same time as he discusses or refutes the objections which are most often opposed to him. The liveliness of the improvised speech allows us to see at work a mode of thinking which, as certain interventions clearly show, can also be a liberating instrument of socioanalysis. By applying to himself the method of analysis of the cultural works that he defends, which leads him to evoke the space of theoretical possibilities as it presented itself at different moments of his intellectual itinerary, Pierre Bourdieu offers the means to provide yourself with both objective and comprehensive knowledge of your work. And at the same time, the entire debate between the human sciences and philosophy which, escaping the obscure insinuations of sly denunciation or the false outbursts of public controversy, finds itself placed on its true ground, that of rigorous and fair confrontation. This collection was published in 1987.
