I just read a wonderful account of the multiple versions of "practice theory" that are currently circulating in the social sciences. I am attaching the article by Joseph Rouse. It does an excellent job of summarizing a vast number of perspectives into a coherent narrative. This article may offer the potential to help clarify different approaches as presuppositions in this area of reflection. I appreciated the way Joseph Rouse reads ACROSS the different traditions and and distinctions within a broad theoretical perspective. I certainly saw where I have been been exploring in this terrain and also numerous other valleys I have not explored. It does speak to the value of attempting to read ACROSS multiple accounts of a theme. It covers many topics that have been explored on CHAT. Larry
