Towards these ends, define, describe and illustrate each of the types of capital
Towards these ends, define, describe and illustrate each of the types of capital (financial, social, cultural), using explicit examples from the Poor Kids video to arrive at an accurate description of the habitus of the poor families depicted in the video. Like for the rich, it is the family unit that will serve as the financial capital for those depicted in the video so detail the types of work that the families are engaged. Also, detail the cultural capital and social capital reflected in the video. Keep in mind, while there are differences between the families, the have lots in common in that they share a common social class. Integrate what Doob says about this social class into your paper and apply it appropriately to your examples. What does Doob say about the poor and education? about the jobs poor engage in? etc. Make sure to put the page number from which you derived this information. Make sure you have specific examples in your paper. Do not assume I have watched the video. Your friends, family, etc. should be able to read your paper without having watched the video and come away with an excellent idea of the habitus of the poor. Conclude your essay (last 3-4 paragraphs) by summarizing the difference in the habitus of the rich from the habitus of the poor. Note how the social, cultural, and financial capitals for each social class (that is their respective habiti) are substantively different. Bourdieu argues that the social classes reproduce themselves. Your textbook elaborates on education as a locus of social reproduction. Do these videos of the rich and poor confirm or contradict his theory? Lastly, using the families in the Poor Kids and Born Rich as your point of departure, debating the American ideology of equal opportunity for all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQvetA1P4Yg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbaslfCkPrY
