Zooming out on practices as embedded entities. 330 $aThere has been an upsurge in scholarship concerned with theories of social practices in various fields including sociology, geography and management studies. This book provides a systematic introduction and overview of recent formulations of practice theory organised around three important themes: the importance of analysing the role of the non-human alongside the human; the reflexive nature of social science research; and the dynamics of social change. Combining a rich variety of detailed empirical research examples with discussion of the relevance of practice theories for policy and social change, this book represents an excellent sourcebook for all academic and professional researchers interested in working with practice theory. 606 $aSocial sciences$xResearch 606 $aSocial sciences$xMethodology 615 0$aSocial sciences$xResearch. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xMethodology. 676 $a300.72 676 $a300.72 701 $aLamers$b Machiel$0926909 701 $aWeenink$b Don$0926910 702 $aSpaargaren$b Gert 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155250103321 996 $aPractice theory and research$92082268 997 $aUNINA
