Résumé

Study on "School Achievement and Social Backgrounds of Families".

"Sociology of education has remained one of the main fields of sociology, from the 19th century to today. Subject to various controversies, many famous authors, like Durkheim or Bourdieu, have developed theories to show the function of school within society and the link that could exist between school achievement and social background.

The question of knowing whether or not there is a real democratisation of education system in the whole developed world is not new. The theme of school and social equality or inequalities has been a constant topic in sociology of education for more than thirty years. The problems we address have to be regarded from a comparative point of view, in time and space."
