Описание: | This article analyzes a part of the political culture, imaginary and habitus of one of the families of the Costa Rican elite, the Jiménez, in a period between 1810 and 2010, approximately. The central argument of this paper is that the dominant groups make up their long-term power and that apart from the use of various strategies to increase material wealth, symbolic power also plays a dominant role, which can be found in the forms in which they agree their marriages, alliances, the mystification of their members, charitable practices, among others. All this allows them to accumulate prestige while trying to legitimize the accumulated power against rivals and the subaltern classes. Lastly, this research was carried out taking up sources of archives, press notes, biographies and mournful notes. |
