Title | The concept of the culture region in the social sciences in France |
Authors | Kofman, E. |
Abstract | This article examines the way in which the cultural factor is invoked to explain and account for regional variations in social practices in diverse social sciences in France. This cultural element may consist of no more than the residual of an analysis in traditional socio-economic terms; or, it may provide the fundamental rationale of regional variations, as in the areal differences in religious practice, explained by the existence of a habitus, a concept borrowed from Bourdieu. |
Le concept de région culturelle dans les sciences sociales en France. - Cet article examine la façon dont on fait appel, dans les sciences sociales en France, à l'aspect culturel pour expliquer des variations régionales dans les pratiques sociales. Cet élément culturel peut ne plus être qu'un résidu d'une analyse en termes socio-économiques; par contre, il peut fournir l'explication fondamentale à des différences territoriales de pratique religieuse expliquées par l'habitus, concept emprunté à Bourdieu. | |
