- W2274869482 abstract "Pierre Bourdieu and Jean-Claude Passeron’s The Inheritors critically examines the French education system in the 1960s. The Inheritors is a compilation of sociological studies on university students in the Arts which the authors use a premises for their education reform citing issues in the traditional system that allow bourgeois students to have an unfair advantage due to their cultured upbringing. The main systemic problem within French education is identified by Bourdieu and Passeron as the charismatic ideology that awards cultural, theoretical knowledge over merit and effort. To resolve the bias within the traditional French education system, a revolutionary new education system is proposed which will eliminate social advantages from education by using sociological methodology and achievements will aim at rewarding pure academic knowledge and effort. Bourdieu and Passeron’s research identifies a link between academic success and privilege, while opposing the under-privileged, thus leading the authors to postulate ways to resolve this inequality; but in doing so, the authors abandon scientific research and opt instead for romanticized concepts of democracy and equality which ultimately moves the argument from educational reform into quasi-civil reform. In The Inheritors, the French education system in the 1960’s is characterized as an unfair system which favors charisma over intelligence, thus leading to bias towards students born with an affluent background. Those students born to a prosperous upper class family, referred to as the privileged or bourgeois, inherit cultural knowledge through their upbringing where activities within the Arts are encouraged and accessible. Contrastingly, less privileged children do not receive the same amount of cultural knowledge from their family and environment as the bourgeois children; and thus they rely on the French education system to acquire such knowledge. This unbalanced knowledge of culture between the privileged and non-privileged leads unfair playing field among students once they reach university in France. The French university system once again perpetuates this division by assessing students on their knowledge of cultural events and ideas: those taught within the lecture hall and those not explicitly taught by teachers. By this schema, students’ academic success of failure does not necessarily correlate to their ability to learn or amount of effort applied; but rather to the cultural knowledge bank a student brings with him or her into the university. The authors of The Inheritors claim the inequality within French universities can be traced back to the very beginnings of schooling where the charisma ideology and its essentialism originate as the social prefix to education. The charisma ideology is labeled as the arbitrary justification the privileged use “to see their success as the confirmation of natural, personal gifts.” The Inheritors advocates for the “unmasking of cultural privilege” and the exposing of the charisma ideology as a farce; but its acceptance is so deeply seeded within French society and education that such a removal requires a monumental shift in the 57 Bourdieu, Pierre, and Jean Claude Passeron.
