habitus

 Based  upon our readings concerning the work of Pierre Bourdieu, please address  the following: a) define his concept of "habitus," specifically citing  your reading material, and give at least ONE example of this important  concept; b) explain the role that habitus plays in creating inequality  (economic, political, social, etc.) between people in society; c) give  one example recently covered in the news media (within the last year or  so), that demonstrates how the accumulation of "cultural capital" can be  used to benefit a person, OR, how a lack of cultural capital can harm a  person.
