Body techniques, Sport, Sociology,Abstract
Why should we revisit the text "body techniques", by the French ethnologist Marcel Mauss, after almost eighty years after being published in the Journal of Psychology (1936)? We believe that despite the temporal distance, the fundaments exposed in the text remain of current interest, especially when studying sport. This article will review the Mauss's theory in this area and emphasize the importance of the research work when contemplating this issue. By speaking of techniques, we will also approach the questions related to the body and its social uses, and the theory of “habitus” in Bourdieu.Downloads
