RT Journal Article T1 ABOUT EROTIC CAPITAL AS CULTURAL CAPITAL A1 Moreno Pestana, Jose Luis A1 Bruquetas Callejo, Carlos K1 Sociology of Body K1 Sociology of domination K1 Pierre Bourdieu K1 Catherine Hakim K1 Aesthetic labor AB 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.
