The present paper seeks to make a parallel between specific points of durkheimian sociology and the problem of the reproduction of domination, a subject of significant relevance in the sociology of Pierre Bourdieu. Bourdieu's effort to understand the objectivity of the social world, its structures, and its relation to subjective schemas of thought finds in Durkheim the social bases for the construction of the epistemological categories that guides the social world. Through a brief explanation about the authors and the main points of their productions that interest this dialogue, we will try to demonstrate how Durkheim occupies a significant place among the influencers of Bourdieu.
