Nota: Para outros sentidos de "capital", veja Capital (desambiguação).Capital, na teoria sociológica de Pierre Bourdieu, é um sinônimo de poder.[1] Consiste em ativos econômicos, culturais ou sociais que se reproduzem e promovem mobilidade social numa sociedade estratificada.[2]
Bourdieu elabora uma tipologia com três categorias de capital: capital econômico, capital social e capital cultural.[3] O autor identifica uma quarta forma, denominada capital simbólico, que corresponde a qualquer uma das três formas de capital na medida em que são apresentados no contexto social.[4]

Citação: “Depending on the field in which it functions, and at the cost of the more or less expensive transformations which are the precondition for its efficacy in the field in question, capital can present itself in three fundamental guises: as economic capital, which is immediately and directly convertible into money and may be institutionalized in the forms of property rights; as cultural capital, which is convertible, on certain conditions, into economic capital and may be institutionalized in the forms of educational qualifications; and as social capital, made up of social obligations (‘connections’), which is convertible, in certain conditions, into economic capital and may be institutionalized in the forms of a title of nobility.”

Symbolic capital, that is to say, capital – in whatever form – insofar as it is represented, i.e., apprehended symbolically, in a relationship of knowledge or, more precisely, of misrecognition and recognition, presupposes the intervention of the habitus, as a socially constituted cognitive capacity”
