Book Description:

This book extends and enriches the possibilities for social practice theories to inform sustainability programs and policies seeking to achieve social change. More specially, it documents how social practice theories could be used to inform relevant methods and strategies for intervention. In doing so it differs from existing work because it directly tackles a key criticism directed at social practice theorists that to date has remained largely unchallenged.
