Abstract: Bourdieu's importance is determined in being a philosopher who summarized knowledge as putting together the different and contradictory philosophical and sociological trends especially during the period post to the second half of the 20th century. Then, the period was distinct for the events, which preoccupied human thought, along with conflicts accompanied by failure of ideological projects which further led to global occupations and collapses. These resulted in new trends that made Bourdieu's philosophy a focus of dispute by these trends. Bourdieu's philosophical interest and epistemological preoccupation are not confined to a certain trend, a state of affairs that made him open to all fields of philosophy, though he began as a structuralist. This beginning had its impact in constructing his knowledge - capitol, but he totally rejected the indulgence within a single trend. And, as he rejected structuralism, he rejected post - structuralism, and so he rejected modernism and post - modernism. This is so for he rebeled against all ideas and ideologies (and all the political and commercial systems, whether capitalist or liberal, that adopt these ideas and ideologies) of enlightenment that controlled man so as to minimize mind to techno - media. As to these approaches the present study makes its points of discussion. The first chapter tackles Bourdieu's Conceptual Device whereby we understand his philosophical project. By this, Bourdieu formed the epistemological tools that he used in all fields. The knowledge of these tools is not a matter of understanding, but is linked to putting into practice that sort of understanding so as to produce projects and different means via which we can deconstruct the predominant ideologies which produce and re - produce these systems as to the ideals of illusion and interest. Illusion is always linked to belief, and interest to the utilisation of practice and labour. Out of practice, new fields are produced as to follow those motives. The production thereof goes beyond the use of capitals and commercial companies in publicising their products along with a pre - publicising of their ideas. There is before publicity and marketing, a dominance over ideas in an attempt to changing the behaviour of individuals, where this is a point of dispute in Pierre Bourdieu's Philosophy of Social Interaction Theory. How could consciousness be swept away by technology and its tools on TV? In other words, it is impossible to express ideas via such tools. T his is the subject matter of the second chapter which deconstructs the domineering powers that helped vanish human mind and re - produced its production in terms of their ideologies which are not restricted to TV alone, but the deconstruction task involves the masculine discourse in which woman helps man to dominate her. This dominance over woman is as to her desire and will, not via enforcing that type of discourse. This is because the way woman was brought up as to the absence of her role and right has its subconscious effects which penetrated the woman thought and behaviour.As for the last chapter, the third, it endeavors to locate Bourdieu in the dialectics of practice and knowledge fields so as to achieve his critical project via critical sociologies in art, culture, literature and knowledge
