Abstract

The article reviews Bourdieu and Passeron’s Reproduction and explains that, alongside the usual theory of symbolic violence, there is another theory about the banality of education, which connects with the amorphous nature of Weber’s power. It then uses the PISA data, which it calculates according to an adaptation of the Gini index methodology, and establishes the correlation between social and educational inequality. Finally, it reviews the role in such a correlation of the various states, appearing a certain profile in former socialist countries.
