Abstract

The contribution discusses a praxeological understanding of the relationship between practice, materiality and historicity, which is grounded in a relational approach centering on the notion of repetition. First, it establishes the characteristics of practice theory and develops a dynamic understanding of repetition for praxeological analyses. The second part discusses nine theoretical and methodological theses concerning inter alia the embeddedness of subjects in relational networks of practices and materialities, the analytical approach towards historic practices, the relationship between past and present and the transitive methodology of practice theory.
