| Tiivistelmä: | Recent debates about the role of what Bourdieu termed cultural intermediaries is examined in the formation and reproduction of the relations of cultural capital. Workers in the cultural or creative industries were given a central place in Bourdieu's schema in the creation of hierarchies of value in the production and consumption of symbolic goods. Subsequent writers about the apparent emergence of a creative economy have given workers involved in the production and distribution of cultural goods a pivotal place in the development of late or post-modernity. More recent work has criticized the validity and coherence of the term as it has come to be understood and called for more rigour in its definition and use. This article adds to this debate by considering the book trade as a space in which the gap between production and consumption of cultural goods is mediated. |
