Words/Phrases DEFINED:
"habitus"
Father Jerome's PSYCHOSOCIOLOGICAL DICTIONARY of KEYWORDS/PHRASES used in his QUALIA III Monograph.
"habitus"
The GENERAL CONTEXT of such use is:
habitus: (a) durable training; the product of internalization of the principles of a cultural arbitrary capable of perpetuating itself after pedagogic action has ceased and thereby of perpetuating in practices the principles of the internalized cultural arbitrary.
(b) The word disposition seems particularly appropriate to express what is covered by the concept of the habitus (defined as a system of dispositions): it expresses, first, the result of an organizing action, with a meaning very close to that of words such as 'structure'; it can also denote a manner of being, a habitual state (especially of the body), and, in particular, a predisposition, a tendency, propensity or inclination.
