This book delineates a pluralist and dynamic model of practical
action which thoughtfully takes into account the reflexive
conception of agency that is, by and large, prevailing in current
social sciences research. Such a model will challenge the one the
cognitive sciences have rather successfully imposed on our
understanding of the relationship between knowledge and action. To
make this model available, the book compares Wittgenstein's theses
on knowing, the pragmatist outlook on inquiry and the analysis of
action in common offered by interactionist sociology. It thus shows
how an integrated theory of practical action would warrant a
radically contextual conception of human individual and collective
behaviour.
