ABSTRACT
This chapter describes of the class order in Brazil and looks at the classes in detail, focusing on the distribution of capital. It studies the classes closely in terms of their everyday life and incorporation of the habitus. It explores the reproduction and legitimation of the dividing lines between the classes. This chapter discusses the dividing lines in more detail and links them to an incorporated classification and its moral legitimation as well as to the current political situation. It demonstrates that persistent class lines exist in capitalist countries. Effective understanding of the world requires reconstruction of the concept of social class. In the dimension of cultural capital, the differences between the classes are very significant but only in terms of an exclusion of the lower classes. The most important relationship of the socialization process of any human being is therefore primarily emotionally affective. it is both, the "possibility of learning" and the producer of "social distinction" to legitimize privileges.
