the economic wealth of upper middle class in contrast to petit bourgoise is
a form of objective power.
the "moral assumptions" and "processes" indicating that upper middle class
is refined in consumption and elaborated in culture and morality in contrast
to other classes is a form of symbolic power.

Sorry for explaining the notions from the examples; I thought it is a better
first step.

Hello,
Can anyone clarify what Bourdieu means when he talks about objective power
as distinct from symbolic power?
