The volume is the result of an attempt to, generally speaking, apply a Bourdieusian research model to the study of transition and social stratification in the transition (post-socialist) period of Serbia and the broader Western Balkans region. The authors follow the relationship between social and cultural capital across various domains. The majority of contributions published in this volume were presented at the conference “Social and Cultural Capital in Western Balkan Societies” organized in June, 2011. The book’s purpose is to open up a debate on various topics and expand our knowledge of the forms of power that structure Western Balkan societies.
