Abstract
La teoría social sigue acordando, de manera creciente, un espacio al cuerpo. Señaladamente, las tesis sobre el capital erótico de Catherine Hakim han puesto en primer plano el valor del cuerpo dentro de las jerarquías sociales contemporáneas. Las interrogaciones de Hakim resultan solidarias con otro conjunto de conceptualizaciones que intentan comprender el valor de la interacción corporal en nuestras sociedades. Discutir el modelo propuesto por Hakim a la luz de la capacidad explicativa de la teoría del capital cultural de Pierre Bourdieu es el primer objetivo de este artículo. El segundo objetivo pretende, utilizando un conjunto de datos empíricos, confirmar si pueden apuntarse vínculos entre los cuidados corporales, la clase social, la clase de edad y el género.
Social theory is trying, increasingly, to reach an agreement on the body place. Particularlly, the Catherine Hakim’s thesis about erotic capital has brought to the foreground the value of the body within contemporary social hierarchies. The Hakim’s questions are connected with another set of conceptualizations that try to understand the value of the physical interaction in our societies. The first aim of this article is to discuss the model proposed by Hakim on the light of the explanatory capacity of Pierre Bourdieu’s cultural capital theory. As a second goal we wish, enlightened by a set of empirical data, to confirm if it is possible to note down links between body care, social class, age class and gender
