Claimed
The
Habitus
Habitus
is defined as systems of
durable, transposable dispositions,
structured structures predisposed to
function as structuring structures, that
is, as principals which generate and
organize practices and representations
that can be objectively adapted to their
outcomes without presupposing a
conscious aiming at ends or an express
mastery of the operations necessary in
order to attain them
Habitus
is produced by the
conditionings associated with a
particular class of conditions of
existence
Habitus is regulated and regular, but
it does not require people to follow
rules in order to act in ways that
are predictable- can be collectively
orchestrated without being the
product of the organizing action of a
conductor

Practices
The
unconscious is never
anything but the forgetting of
history which history itself
produces by realizing the objective
structures that it generates in the
quasi-nature of habitus
Habitus is the active presense of
the whole past of which it is a
product.
