DAVILA, LUIS FELIPE et al. SYMBOLIC VIOLENCE: A REVIEW OF STUDIES THAT COINED THE CONCEPT IN LATIN AMERICA (2009-2019). Novum Jus [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.2, pp.45-82.  Epub 06-Ago-2022. ISSN 1692-6013.  https://doi.org/10.14718/novumjus.2020.14.2.3.

The purpose of this paper is to establish the current state of the art in the concept of symbolic violence in the Latin American academic context. To achieve this objective, the text includes a literature review of the articles, books, and theses that covered the concept between the years 2009 and 2019, as stated in the project's scope. Although French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu introduced the concept of symbolic violence at the end of the 20th century, this paper is not an exhaustive review of Bourdieu's work, but rather of the authors who have used the concept as an explanatory axis in their research about Latin America. The researchers started with a paper review in the qualitative analysis software, ATLAS.ti, and then carried out a more thorough and qualitative analysis of the different papers. The concept of symbolic violence has been developed in the following academic fields: gender and feminism studies, social and political studies, and pedagogy and education. The field of gender studies extensively refers to symbolic violence, and is the field in which the highest number of publications on this topic are found. The magnitude of studies and the way in which the concept has been used in the last ten years demonstrates Bourdieu's work is still conducive to making sociology a combat sport.

Palabras clave : symbolic violence; fields; gender; Bourdieu.
