“…23 Associated with this is an increasing emphasis of aesthetic over moral-political values. If cultural studies in particular are defined as the study of the stylization of life (Bourdieu, 1984;Featherstone, 1994), so that moral-political values are overlooked or reduced to matters of style, then cultural studies are complicit in the aestheticization of moral-political values. Political values have a definite sociology, and may be associated with particular aesthetic tastes, to be sure, but they are also evaluated -in lay as well as academic circles -according to features which do not reduce wholly to those social contexts.…”

The paper presents a sympathetic critique of Bourdieu's work in terms of the tension between its critical intentions and its leanings towards sociological reductionism. Although Bourdieu argues against such reductionism in his methodological pronouncements, his empirical studies tend to reduce actors' putative disinterested judgements to functions of their habitus in relation to the social field and to unconscious strategies of distinction. Further, his concept of (non-monetary) forms of capital occludes the difference between use-value and exchange-value and the corresponding distinction between the pursuit of goods and the pursuit of distinction, which are vital for both explanation and critique. Moreover his suspicion of normative judgement on the part of social science and his concealment of his own normative standpoint subvert his critiques. Thus in relation to Bourdieu's analysis of the role of misrecognition in social life I argue that this requires a delineation of the extent of justified recognition. In developing the argument I draw upon Adam Smith's analysis of moral sentiments and his critique of undeserved recognition and the pursuit of distinction. Where Bourdieu is dismissive about moral issues, Smith treats moral sentiments as irreducible to interest or instrumental action and as a significant element in the reproduction of social order. The paper concludes with some implications for the nature of critique in social theory.

“…2 Postmoderna tendencija estetizacije urbane svakodnevnice manifestuje se u razvoju novih potrošačkih enklava, kao što su muzeji, zabavni parkovi, tržni centri, koji su sastavni deo džentrifikovanih pejzaža. Njegova analiza podržava ideju grada kao zabave i spektakla, ali i svođenje građana na potrošače 3 (Featherstone, 1994). On (1994) 4 postmoderni grad poistovećuje s nemestom, 5 jer su u njemu slabo razvijeni osećaj za mesto i kolektivni identitet.…”

Sažetak U radu se skreće pažnja na značaj koji osećaj sigurnosti ima u savremenom urbanom prostoru. Preoblikovanje gradskog prostora povezano je sa procesom transformacije industrijskog/modernog grada u postmoderni grad, koji je uslovljen ekonomskom promenom (postfordizmom), urbanom politikom (usvajanjem preduzetničkog modela upravljanja) i urbanim planiranjem. U takvim uslovima je za funkcionisanje postmodernog grada neophodno njegovo predstavljanje kao bezbednog prostora za investicije, poslovne aktivnosti, život i/ili posetu. Urbani prostor postmodernog grada takođe se menja, usled povećanja mobilnosti ljudi i kapitala. Profesionalna i prostorna mobilnost utiču i na pitanja identiteta i pripadnost zajednici. Zato pripadnici srednje klase usvajaju različite strategije da bi se prilagodili tim promenama. Poredeći postmoderni sa modernim gradom, ukazuje se na procese koji smanjuju urbanitet i socijalnu koheziju postmodernog grada, a sve više komercijalizuju, privatizuju i fragmentuju njegov prostor.

“…Al decir de Sassen y Roost (1999) "la gran ciudad ha asumido el status de exótica". Esta escena que los visitantes consumen está compuesta por un caleidoscopio de experiencias y espacios orientados al trabajo, el consumo, el ocio y la entretención (Featherstone, 1994). Resulta inevitable la evocación del paseante urbano de la gran metrópoli, "el flâneur", de W. Benjamin (sobre Atenea 512 II Sem.…”

RESUMEnEl turismo indígena urbano es un fenómeno singular en América Latina. Si se examina la experiencia latinoamericana en casos como México, Guatemala, Perú y Bolivia, lo que se denomina generalmente como turismo indígena se concentra en áreas rurales o campesinas e incluso, en varios casos, no se denomina turismo indígena sino simplemente turismo campesino. Este artículo sistematiza y teoriza en torno a algunas experiencias de turismo especial desarrolladas recientemente en Santiago de Chile con varias organizaciones indígenas (mapuches, aymaras y rapa nui) que desarrollan sus actividades culturales en diversos centros ceremoniales urbanos, valorizando y preservando el patrimonio y la identidad cultural indígena en la gran ciudad.En los últimos años se han generado iniciativas innovadoras tendientes a formar redes de turismo indígena en la Región Metropolitana, dando paso a forjar un nuevo paradigma del turismo indígena urbano. Estas actividades, aunque todavía incipientes, son generalmente desarrolladas a partir del pensamiento, reflexión y acciones de las comunidades indígenas, actores quienes hacen sus propias propuestas, con el fin de * Los autores agradecen el valioso aporte y reflexiones de
