Resumen
This article uses Bourdieu?s theory of practice (BTOP) to understand immigrants? acculturation. It synthesizes research findings by discussing acculturation as: (1) equalization of immigrants? and natives? development (convergence); (2) language and social practices related to economic, cultural, social and symbolic capitals; and (3) relationships among acculturation indicators in the evolving interactions among immigrants? habituses and their economic, cultural, social, and symbolic capitals. Hypotheses tests use micro, meso and macro-level practices. Results confirm a systemic correspondence between the habitus and different types of capital, suggesting that relationships among components of immigrants? habituses and their capitals change as acculturation develops.
