Why does Pierre Bourdieu describe the State as the culmination of a process of concentration of different species of capital (1994: 4)? How did Bourdieu give a clear and basic definition of the State? How did he deduce/particularize/specify his definition of the state from a more general concept of state? What are the major conceptual elements of his state (PARAGRAPH 1)? What is the state for you? Why and how does it concentrate its tendency? Explain your answer by relating the Bourdiean state to your circumstance as a student (PARAGRAPH 2). What is state-society theory? (PAGE 2) (25pts). Why do Karen Barkey and Sunita Parikh claim that the state-society relations are critical to understanding state action (1991: 523)? How did Barkey and Parikh relate the state to society (vis--vis the dominant theorizations of the state)? How did Barkey and Parikh explain (identify the independent and dependent variables) the relationship between state and society? How did they justify this relationship (PARAGRAPH 1)? What is your theory of the state? Why is there a state (a Philippine state)? Why (and how) does it manifest in your life as a student (PARAGRAPH 2). BONUS: Is the topic of State (its various theorizations, conceptualizations, misconceptions, nuances, etc.) relevant to you? Explain (PAGE 3) (5 points).
