Abstract

The article aims al analyzing Pierre Bourdieu’s book Sobre a televisão (About television). This reflection also traces a parallel between this author ‘s contributions to classical theory authors, Adorno/Horkheimer and Edgar Morin, in discussing the cultural industry phenomenon. We consider the book Sobre a televisão a recovery of the theoretical reading of these authors, updating them by naming the domination mechanisms based on the symbolic power concept.
