Evaluating the Importance of Social Capital for the Conversion of the Forms of Capital: A Critical Approach to the Bourdieusian Model

Öz

In The Forms of Capital, Pierre Bourdieu offers significant insight into the nature of the relationship among economic, cultural, and social capital at the individual level. However, his perspective in the fungibility among these forms of capital includes neither the more comprehensive conceptualization of the conversion processes occurring at the group level, nor the applicability of symbolic capital throughout the conversions. In this study, I focus on the concept of social capital, conceptualize it as a master capital to develop the Bourdieusian model of conversions, and present my own conceptual approach while addressing the shortcomings of the Bourdieusian model. In my conceptualization, social capital, functioning both as a connector and a transmitter between individuals, facilitates the examination of the more complex group-level conversions. Thus, this enlargement of the Bourdieusian model of conversions provides a more encompassing understanding of the strategies that individuals apply to compete for resources and positions in society.
