Abstract
In mapping out some of the key features of his interpretation of practice theory, JosephRouse begins by talking about the influence of science studies, and about the social organizationof scientific practice. In all of this, Kuhn is an important figure, as are controversies about the socially constructed nature of knowledge. For Joe, practice theory provides a distinctive take on these debates and on the place of language, materiality, normativity,and power. Allthese issues prove to be important for big questions about the natural and the social world and for Joe’s conclusion that practices underpin the basic structure of human biological environments.
