Lahire is also a member of the Max Weber Center for Advanced Cultural and Social Studies. By the late 2000s, Lahire rose to prominence as one of the country's most eminent living sociologists. Work Lahire's early work involved a critical discussion of ''Pierre Bourdieu''.

Many sides or spheres of human activity are not like field, even if they are differentiated from other activities. Similarly, Lahire argued that while there were conditions where actors embodied unitary and homogeneous dispositions, this is not always the case. This latte ...
