Intercultural Capital

Abstract

Drawing from Pierre Bourdieu’s conceptual “toolbox†, this article focuses on intercultural capital as an increasingly significant type of cultural capital and marker of sociocultural distinction. It first introduces different forms of intercultural capital, with a particular interest in the potential benefits of its embodiment. Subsequently, the critical question as to why some people can be considered as better positioned to realize intercultural capital than others is being addressed. The remainder of the discussion looks at possible operational “measures†for the concept of intercultural capital and how these may be applied to examine the conditions and potential impact of its realization.
