  • This study examines the characteristics of Paul Smith's fashion from the viewpoint of Habitus. To this end, on the theory of Bourdieu's Habitus concept and theory of the field, we derive the attributes of fashion and fashion designers and Habitus that appeared in fashion from the viewpoint of Habitus. Based on this, the tendency of Paul Smith's Habitus tendency has been examined and how it is expressed in fashion design and store production has been investigated. The scope of the study is from 1977 to the present, and it covers Paul Smith's menswear and stores. Research methods are literature research and visual data analysis. The results of the study are as follows. The characteristics of Habitus' tendency in Paul Smith are childlike imagination and humor, vigorous curiosity and observation, paranoid collection and memos, and British tradition and craftsmanship. Paul Smith's Habitus propensity reflects the following features in fashion design and store direction. First, a unique mix of wit or list structure, second, respect for uniqueness and discrimination with respect for the local image, and third, the new male image was presented to contribute to the diversification of consumers, and fourth, sensitivity and emotion reflecting his Habitus propensity. It is a friendly space for communication. As a result of analyzing and applying to Paul Smith, it was found that the special Habitus characteristics possessed by designers in fashion are important and impart a great influence.

  • Based on the Greek myth of Pygmalion and the fairy tale of Cinderella, Shaw's Pygmalion demonstrates a masterful coalescence of these two narrative motifs into a coherent plot scheme. Even more significant is his keen insight into the conflicts created at the tripartite intersection of human activity concerning language/class/culture, which, as the leitmotif, revolves around lessons in language learning. This play basically deals with human transformation and by its very nature, Higgins's experimentation with transforming Eliza cannot stop at language alone. Her cultural transformation ripples over into the realms of gesture and even a unique way of living (modus vivendi) intimately associated with taste and manners, which Bourdieu terms as habitus. By acquiring a new fashion and language, Eliza is reborn as a new lady aspiring to be filled with a newly acquired habitus. While separating her from her old Cockney style, Higgins inculcates Queen's English in Eliza, in which process her changed speech styles gradually transforms and restructures her deportment and manners, finally generating new practices, perceptions and attitudes. The gist of Pygmalion is however less Eliza's ascent into the middle class than her battle for symbolic capital waged at the level of language. By problematizing his contemporary practice of habitus conventionalized and warped by class distinctions based on economic, social and cultural capitals, Shaw creates a new humanist model of man founded on spiritual and rational virtues. In conclusion, Eliza is not a frigid Galatea but a dynamic character that goes through a brilliant transformation of three stages: 1) linguistic; 2) cultural, and 3) humanist. Finally she is built into a "consort battleship" on an equal standing with her sculptor. The process of her character-building cannot be illuminated without resorting to the dynamic notion of habitus, which highlights the process of inculcation, structuring, generation and transposing. Given the overwhelming weight of the heroine's role and the dynamic process of her transformation as the major plot scheme, this play should be christened Galatea in lieu of Pygmalion.

  • Building on the framework of language socialization [10] in language learning and use, the present study examines the environmental factors involved in four college students' English learning in the situated place of the home during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using narrative inquiry, this study implements a time-series analysis to investigate undergraduates' online English learning in a rural area of northwest China. The data were collected via oral and written narration, semi-structured interviews, and class documents. Leveraging the field-habitus theories, the findings reveal that each of the students had a different habitus in the family field that influenced their English learning at home between March to July of 2020. Ultimately, all four students felt that their habitus made their online English learning ineffective and expressed that they did not wish to continue learning at home. The findings imply that it is important for rural parents to pay more attention to building college students' learning environments and helping students cultivate a strong learning habitus in the family field in northwest China.

  • Después de los años 90, en la América Latina, nos llama la atención el surgimiento de los nuevos movimientos sociales que quieran superar o cambiar los caracteres del regimen neoliberalista, el cual nos obliga mantenernos aislados o dispersados. Sobre todo se trató así fuerte en la Argentina con los movimientos sociales de los desocupados pobres que se llaman 'piqueteros' en la segunda mitad de la década 90. En este estudio, he intentado de comprender y explicar cuáles motivos o contextos socio-culturales hayan movido esos movimientos sociales con la ayuda del marco teórico de 'habitus' de Pierre Bourdieu. Por ello, es muy importante interpretar la solidaridad entre la clase obrera y la media según la perspectiva de Bourdieu debido a la sugerencia de habitus de la clase obrera y la media latinoamericana basado en la cultura oral. Porque los movimientos piqueteros argentinos surgieron no desde la clase social ni del individuo abstracto-racional de la modernidad sino de los individuos reales. Y el concepto de habitus se penetra en el cuerpo de los individuos de manera inconsciente construido desde fuera de las condiciones histórico-sociales por mucho tiempo. Y también en la Argentina esa solidaridad ha desarrollado no sólo a superar la pobreza en sí misma sino a construir nuevas maneras sociales de los procesos de producción capitalista en forma del movimiento cooperativista, que se llama 'las empresas recuperadas por los trabajadores'. Por tanto, he analizado el proceso de cambio social en el ámbito de la América Latina relacionando el habitus con la estructura socio-cultural de la oralidad en dos sentidos; primero, se recalca la importancia de solidaridad entre las clases y la media segundo, fuerte resistencia social ante los crisis socio-económicos. Por ultimo, hay que valorar la importancia de la aparición de los nuevos sujetos sociales así como esos movimientos cooperativistas, socialización de los procesos de producción capitalista en renovar la democracia misma.
