Description

In today's knowledge societies and knowledge economies, social change is often discussed without accounting for the specific nature of knowledge. Many accounts treat knowledge as neutral or homogeneous, which limits the depth of educational research. This book by Routledge addresses these gaps by moving beyond simple processes of knowing to provide a deeper look at knowledge itself. Through the introduction of Legitimation Code Theory (LCT), this work provides a sophisticated theoretical framework for analyzing knowledge practices. By integrating the influential approaches of Pierre Bourdieu and Basil Bernstein, the text offers a practical way to overcome knowledge-blindness. It provides researchers and students with the tools to study knowledge without falling into the trap of essentialism. This is a vital resource for those studying the sociology of education and seeking a realist perspective on how knowledge functions within social structures.
