Concept	Definition
Symbolic field	Space comprised of positions and functions exclusively perceived by individuals participating in it, where they are engaged in conflicts⁽¹⁰10 Bourdieu P. O poder simbólico. Rio de Janeiro: Bertrand Brasil; 2012.⁾.
Field agents	Individuals who suffer and produce effects on the symbolic field. They are aware of field conflict rules and engage in it⁽¹⁰10 Bourdieu P. O poder simbólico. Rio de Janeiro: Bertrand Brasil; 2012.⁾.
Field conflict	Conflict between symbolic field agents, aimed at the acquisition of symbolic power and field positions⁽¹⁰10 Bourdieu P. O poder simbólico. Rio de Janeiro: Bertrand Brasil; 2012.⁾.
Symbolic power	Objective power, capable of confirming or transforming reality. It can become objective through things (symbols) and it exists because individuals or group subject to it legitimize its existence⁽¹⁰10 Bourdieu P. O poder simbólico. Rio de Janeiro: Bertrand Brasil; 2012.⁾.
Law	Norm established by the dominating class and based on the logic of juridical sciences to promote juridical or law habits that standardize individual actions in society and maintain the symbolic order⁽¹⁰10 Bourdieu P. O poder simbólico. Rio de Janeiro: Bertrand Brasil; 2012.⁾.
Rights	Socially acknowledged form of symbolic power that attributes certain status to individuals and legitimizes the acquisition and use of everything associated with this condition (identity, powers, titles)⁽¹⁰10 Bourdieu P. O poder simbólico. Rio de Janeiro: Bertrand Brasil; 2012.⁾.
Economic capital	Set of material assets – money, properties, actions, work – accumulated by individuals⁽¹¹11 Bourdieu P. Escritos de educação. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012.⁾.
Social capital	Set of current or potential resources that allow individuals to identify and connect to a certain social group and establish a network of useful relationships with its members⁽¹¹11 Bourdieu P. Escritos de educação. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012.⁾.
Cultural capital	Set of intellectual qualifications of individuals, accumulated as durable disposition (incorporated state), ownership of cultural assets (objectivated state) or certificates of competence issued by teaching institutions (institutionalized state)⁽¹¹11 Bourdieu P. Escritos de educação. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012.⁾.
Symbolic capital	Distinction, prestige, social recognition. It can originate from any type of capital⁽¹⁰10 Bourdieu P. O poder simbólico. Rio de Janeiro: Bertrand Brasil; 2012.⁾.
Cultural inheritance	Inheritance comprised of the cultural capital and ethos (internalized values), directly or indirectly transmitted to individuals by their families⁽¹¹11 Bourdieu P. Escritos de educação. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012.⁾.
Habitus	The practice of an individual or group. A constant habit of thought, perception, appreciation and action, transferable through inculcation⁽¹²12 Bourdieu P, Passeron JC. A reprodução: elementos para uma teoria do sistema de ensino. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012⁾.
Inculcation	Internalization of practices performed by an individual or group. It produces the habitus, which can completely replace it for another or maintain it in this individual or group. It can be intentional or not⁽¹²12 Bourdieu P, Passeron JC. A reprodução: elementos para uma teoria do sistema de ensino. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012⁾.
Symbolic violence	Imposition of certain meanings on an individual or group as something legitimate, aiming to dominate them. To become effective, those being dominated must recognize the legitimacy of such domination⁽¹²12 Bourdieu P, Passeron JC. A reprodução: elementos para uma teoria do sistema de ensino. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012⁾.
Cultural arbitrariness	Arbitrary selection of meanings that define the culture of a group. It expresses the interests of the dominating classes⁽¹²12 Bourdieu P, Passeron JC. A reprodução: elementos para uma teoria do sistema de ensino. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012⁾.
Pedagogical authority	Social condition of autonomy of the instance that performs the pedagogical action. Its legitimacy is a requirement to make this action effective⁽¹²12 Bourdieu P, Passeron JC. A reprodução: elementos para uma teoria do sistema de ensino. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012⁾.
Social preservation	Preservation of the social structure and power relationships established between social classes. A consequence of social reproduction⁽¹²12 Bourdieu P, Passeron JC. A reprodução: elementos para uma teoria do sistema de ensino. Petrópolis: Vozes; 2012⁾.
