Bhaskar's realism is undoubtedly a good complement to 
Bourdieu's approach. I would suggest, however, that a more 
sociological complement to Bourdieu's approach is found in 
the work of A.Sayer. Sayer's methodological arguments are found 
in his book "Method in Social Research. A Realist Approach" 
(Routledge: London, 1992). His arguments about the construction 
of the theoretical object tend to follow the same line than 
Bhaskar, but with a more sociological emphasis. In these terms 
it complements and fills the empty spaces left by Bourdieu's 
"Le metier de sociologue".
