Summary

There are several pretty constant critiques that the practice turn in IR attracts: the mis/use of social theories of practice, especially, but not exclusively of Bourdieu; the unwillingness to engage seriously with alternative explanations; the inability to provide an adequate account of non-trivial change; the unsatisfying quality of non-ethnographic methods to get at practices; and the contested ontological priority of practice. The authors in this volume address these issues, and more, in the chapters that follow.
