The provided passages do not explicitly list any unanswered questions.
The passages describe the contents of "The Logic of Practice" by Pierre Bourdieu. The book's first part, "Critique of Theoretical Reason," addresses general questions like the objectivization of the relationship between social scientific observers and their objects of study, overcoming the subjectivism-objectivism gulf, the interplay between structure and practice, the role of the body, time manipulation, types of symbolic capital, and modes of domination [1, 3]. The second part, "Practical Logics," uses case studies from ethnographic fieldwork to explore kinship, domestic space, social categories, and ritualized actions [1]. The book aims to fully develop theoretical positions previously sketched and is useful for readers interested in Bourdieu's subtle concepts, his departures from structuralism, and the role of human agency in his theory [2, 1].
