Habitus and the Journalistic Field Sample Clauses

Habitus and the Journalistic Field. Bridging the Theoretical Dichotomy The existing literature on journalism in various post-­‐authoritarian countries, as well as on Kompas daily newspaper, has produced a theoretical dichotomy as discussed above. This study believes that the theory of habitus in the journalistic field could offer a solution to bridge these two contrasting approaches. In fact, over the last decade there has been a growing interest among media scholars to take advantage of the work of the French sociologist, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx (2005), in approaching the study of the field of journalism (Xxxxxx, 1998 & 2006; Xxxxxx and Xxxxx, 2005; Xxxxxxxxx, 2011; Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, 2006; Xxxxxxxx, 1998 & 2000; Xxxxxxx, 2007;). One of the cornerstones of Xxxxxxxx’x influence can be seen in the manuscript edited by Xxxxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxx entitled “Xxxxxxxx and the Journalistic Field” (2005). As well as presenting a translation of Xxxxxxxx’x article entitled “The Political Field, the Social Science Field, and the Journalistic Field”, this book also provides some articles by Xxxxxxxx’x colleagues, and more importantly, articles written by media scholars from English speaking countries explaining their responses to and theoretical reflections on Xxxxxxxx’x theory (Champagne, 2005; Xxxxxx, 2005; Xxxxx, 2005; Xxxxxx, 2005, Xxxxxxxxxx, 2005; Xxxxxxxxx, 2005; Xxxxxxxx, 2005). The starting point for understanding this theory of journalism is Xxxxxxxx’x general theory of ‘field’. Departing from Xxxxx’x sociology of religion, Xxxxxxxx suggested that society consists of various fields, each with its own rules, and each of which is a space of unequal social relationships between agents who are struggling either to transform or preserve that social space. Within each field, there are two opposing poles: the heteronomy pole representing the political and economic forces (which is a reflection of the penetration of external forces into the field), and the autonomy pole that represents capital unique to that field. Thus, the field can be distinguished by both the specific type of capital it utilizes, and the degree of autonomy it has in relation to the dominant economic and political field. The first step to understanding the journalistic field is to position it amongst other fields. In this case, the journalistic field lies within the field of cultural production, which itself lies within the field of power. The field of cultural production consists of two aspects: the field of restricted cultural production a...
