Recensione This book brings together thinkers at the forefront of applying practice theory to the challenges of moving society towards sustainability. It not only consolidates practice theory’s critique of conventional approaches to changing what people do, but points towards alternative ways of thinking through how change can be effected. Matt Watson, University of Sheffield, UK
How can practices be made, unmade or retrieved from dormancy to help us shift towards sustainability? How can social practice scholarship help rethink intervention in policy and governance? Bringing together provocative discussions from established and emerging voices, this book itself makes a decisive intervention in our responses to the climate change challenge. Lesley Head, University of Wollongong, Australia A profoundly important book. Playing politics with methods and social practice theory, this book challenges conventional sustainability discourse based on individuals’ behavioural change. It convincingly demonstrates different pathways for analysis and alternative avenues for intervention, governance and change.
