Primes¶
- Cultural Hegemony
- Hegemony theory sometimes tilts toward structural determinism — the idea that institutions automatically reproduce hegemonic framings in those exposed to them.
This sourceDefines habitus as durable, transposable dispositions formed by internalizing objective structures, and doxa as the taken-for-granted self-evident.

- Enculturation
- The dual-channel structure is critical: conscious enculturation occurs through explicit teaching (parents instruct children in kinship terms, religious prayer, occupational skills, moral rules), while unconscious enculturation occurs through modeling, imitation, and participation in routine practices that embed deeper cultural assumptions (what counts as beautiful, who has authority, what is shameful)
This sourceDefines habitus as durable, transposable dispositions inculcated early and operating before conscious deliberation — supports unconscious enculturation via modeling/participation and the depth of habitus (D29-094).
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
Bourdieu's deposited abstract supplies only the habitus frame — incorporated structures that reproduce themselves — not the claim's mechanism of modeling, imitation and routine participation.
“With his central concept of the habitus, the principle which negotiates between objective structures and practices, Bourdieu is able to transcend the dichotomies which have shaped theoretical thinking about the social world.”

- Habitus
- Habitus, in Pierre Bourdieu's theoretical account
This sourceDefines habitus as a system of durable, transposable dispositions formed by the internalization of objective social structures, so that group members govern conduct from within without ongoing external enforcement — supports the sociological/psychological internalization of norms and roles into disposition.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
The publisher abstract identifies habitus as Bourdieu's central concept negotiating objective structures and practices, but does not state the claim's definitional wording.

- Internalization
- Sociology / social psychology: Social norms, roles, and values are internalized until they operate as the agent's own conscience or disposition — Freud's superego, Bourdieu's habitus — so that conformity no longer requires external surveillance and persists in private.

Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
The publisher's abstract backs habitus as structures incorporated into practice, not the claim's conscience or unsurveilled-conformity clause.
“he analyses the dialectical process of the 'incorporation of structures' and the objectification of habitus, whereby social formations tend to reproduce themselves”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 3 of 6 citations: 3 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
