The Issue with Cultural Capital

Considering our background with our family and most of us, most people will claim that what we got from them is a positive thing like comfort and pride. In countries like America, having a reliable family is not a bad thing. But most of us do not normally see people who bring us to us and who have the greatest impact on our lives are obstacles for us . Li Brian, contributor of the History Learning website, stated that "people in the working classes themselves should be responsible for child educational failures" (see Section 1).

Another way of defining the course is through lifestyles, not people's income and lifestyle. Most scholars consider "cultural capital" (related to economic capital, related to capital, social capital related network). In the UK, Savage et al. Seven classes are defined according to social, cultural and economic capital. In the measurement of cultural capital, we analyze the degree of contact between respondents and "elegant" culture such as classical music and art galleries, or "emerging" culture such as sports and rap music. The resulting class structure was named two middle classes: an established middle class with high (but not "very" high) economic, social and cultural capital; however, Economic social capital is higher. They are also drawing attention to new wealthy workers who have more moderate economic and social capital but are getting high scores on "emerging" cultural capital.

One of the major barriers to the success of schools and labor markets is the lack of cultural capital. Cultural capital is an ambiguous term, but for this purpose this position will be regarded as a norm of social class, knowledge, skill and language ability (Mehan, 1992). More specifically, it affects the ability of a particular class to navigate and manipulate in a socially dominant culture, but it is often quite different from lower class cultures. Pierre Bourdieu, a pioneer of the concept of cultural capital, believes that schools and societies will reward the capital of the dominant class and will provide their own advantages for the elite (Kinston, 2001). Sullivan (2001) states that cultural capital is "exclusive" and basically protects people who do not have "correct" capital stock (p. 89). This is only a partial explanation of the academic and economic success of social privilege (Sullivan, 2001).
