“…I argue that transnational habitus is a useful concept for the analysis of transnational experiences in the digital age, as well as for the interpretation of mechanisms through which migrants manage multiplicity and develop transnational and cosmopolitan skills*whether emotional, analytical, creative, communication or functional (Vertovec 2009). Another of Bourdieu's concepts, often seen as peripheral (Costey 2005), could prove of heuristic interest: the illusio. The illusio is the mechanism through which habitus operates, i.e.…”

“…Asimismo, el medio académico conforma un juego -lo que Pierre Bourdieu llama un campo social-regido por reglas no siempre explícitas y cuyo illusio (Cosey, 2005) mantiene a sus participantes en la convicción que el juego vale la pena ser jugado, lo cual, a final de cuentas, encubre relaciones de poder (correlaciones de fuerza y sentido) que son lo que define el tipo de juego que hay que jugar: escasez de bienes, violencia simbólica, competencia entre participantes, jerarquía fuera de la crítica, efectos mateo, etcétera. He ahí los ingredientes que producen la propia ignorancia del medio académico sobre sus prácticas y valores y la relación distorsionada entre ambos.…”

This article derives from a series of previous studies since 2008 about the movement of former workers in different parts of Mexico. This movement has several sociological edges: social rights, labor migration, return migrations, public migration policies, emotional experiences of migration, old age, rural areas, etc. The role of ignorance in the relationship between braceros and authorities is addressed, in the light of this complexity. Ignorance, known as agnotology from the pioneering works of the historian Robert Proctor, has become an object of study to understand another aspect of contemporary governance. It consists in the deliberate production of ignorance that is infused and spread to a given audience, often taking advantage of its vulnerability. It works by omission (absence of information) or confusion (multiple information). The above is my object of study and then I present its first research results.

“…Illusio, then, represents the more conscious counterpart of the tacit and unquestionable 'doxa' of a field. In this regard, it is important not to mistake illusio for 'illusion' (Costey, 2005). Indeed, players' engagement is an illusion only to the indifferent spectator observing the game from outside it (Bourdieu, 2000;Bourdieu & Wacquant, 1992).…”

Public spending reductions across the advanced capitalist world are creating new professions which have a 'hybrid' status and/or role. However, research on professional learning has paid little attention to them. This qualitative study of one such profession, public service interpreting (PSI), addresses that lacuna. The paper focuses on interpreters' interactions with other professionals and with migrants using public services. It evokes Bourdieu's important but neglected concept of illusio -the extent to which players invest commitment in the stakes of a field -to frame the analysis. This highlights the lack of autonomy for PSI, interpreters' own ambiguous illusio, and their conflicts with the illusio of more powerful professions with which they must work. We conclude that there is a need for more research on the power relations between new hybrid professions and established professions, and that Bourdieu's illusio is a potent analytical concept for this task.
