“…In the collection Class Education and Hegemony (1979), organized by José Carlos Durand and Lia Machado, there were two articles written by Bourdieu, "The Comparability of Education Systems" by Bourdieu and Passeron, and "Conversion Strategies", by Bourdieu, Luc Boltanski and Monique de Saint-Martin. As Catani (1980) points out, when analyzing this collection it becomes clear that it is still composed of texts written by other Bourdieu collaborators, and has the central concern of bringing texts that have as a reference the contemporary capitalist society to Brazilian readers and present a reflection on how education collaborates in reproducing the consensus required for class reproduction. It can be inferred that the actuality of this debate in Brazil would therefore reside in the fact that these reflections are about a contemporary capitalist society, in which the country would be inserted.…”
