Dear friends and colleagues,
as you may know, Pierre Bourdieu is currently at the center of a huge controversy in
France, concerning his intellectual hegemony and  his  radical criticism of  politics.
Those who read French (and I am sure it concerns many of you) will find interesting
elements in Liberation (08/27/1998) and in Le Monde (08/28/1998), including reviews of PB
last book. It seems that the very controversial (and unfair) essay of Jeannine
Verd=E8s-Leroux, "Le savant et la politique, Essai sur le terrorisme sociologique de Pierre
Bourdieu" (Grasset), will be the hype of this autumn on the rive gauche.
Greetings from France.
