The authors of the book analyze the generation, distributions and transformations of economic, cultural and social capital in the locality. A range of local, interconnected fields are identified, and the ways in which various capitals are used and transformed by residents are analyzed, within different age groups and over the course of life. Fields and Capitals provides a unique depiction of a small community in Central Finland. For the first time in Finland, Bourdieus sociological approach is applied in a broad-based analysis of locality and local capitals and fields.
