ABSTRACT
The notion of field played a central role in the
scientific projects of Kurt Lewin and Pierre Bourdieu.
In this paper we carry out a comparative analysis of
their theoretical and methodological use of this
concept in their prolific output in the fields of
psychology and sociology, respectively. For this
purpose we focused on five crucial issues that both
researchers explored in the process of developing
their respective field theories: the break with partial
objectifications, the construction of the object, the
internal dynamics of fields, the delimitation of their
boundaries, and the mathematical representation of
psychological and sociological facts. We conclude
with a summary in which we highlight some
important coincidences and differences in the
respective field theories of Kurt Lewin and Pierre
Bourdieu. Both assigned it similar epistemological
