Answer:

Cultural capital

Explanation:

Cultural capital consists of knowledge about artistic trends and cultural acts that one can use to establish oneself in society, and demonstrate a particular social-standing. It also consists of tastes, preferences, and even ways of speaking, living, and moving.

The term was coined by French sociologist Pierre Bordieu. According to him, cultural capital is a form of class distinction, because the access to certain cultural products depends on variables such as race, ethnicity, income, sex, and religion.
