Theorizing Practice and Practicing Theory
梳理了实践理论在组织研究中的应用,区分了经验、理论和哲学三种路径,并讨论了其原则、案例及对组织学术的挑战与机遇。
This paper describes the emerging field of practice theory as it is practiced in relation to organizational phenomena. We identify three approaches—empirical, theoretical, and philosophical—that relate to the what, the how, and the why of using a practice lens. We discuss three principles of the theoretical approach to practice and offer examples of how practice theory has been used in the organizational literature and in our own research. We end with a discussion of the challenges and opportunities that practice theory affords organizational scholarship.
