Description
Summary:This article aims to investigate if the concept of symbolic value, developed by Pierre Bourdieu in some of his most expressive works (1983; 1986; 1989), could be a relevant theoretical and methodological tool for the understanding of the asymmetrical relations of cultural consumption between Brazil and Portugal, especially when we think about the portuguese popular music linked to the world of pop/rock and produced after the Revolução dos Cravos (on April 1974), which isvirtually unknown in Brazil. Throughout this paper, I find in the little symbolic value that the consumption of Portuguese music (in its "traditional" or "modern" form) is able to denote one of the possible explanations for the low expression of portuguese popular music among the youth brazilian public.
