On the other hand, analogous refers to the trait that- although originally developed to serve a different function- have evolved to carry out an…

I will be critically analysing Distinction and Bourdieu’s Forms of Capital (1986) as well as many other…

Nietzsche’s method begins with the doubt: is there a distinction between a thing and its meaning. The same things have different meaning at the different time, but people usually consume that it is all the same. He also shows the valuation “good and evil”, “good and bad”.
