SUMMARY:Practice Theory and International Relations
DESCRIPTION:Book Discussion\nAre social practices actions or institutional 
 frameworks of interaction structured by common rules? How do social practi
 ces such as signing a cheque differ from international practices such as s
 igning a peace treaty? Traversing the fields of international relations (I
 R) and philosophy\, this book defends an institutionalist conception of pr
 actices as part of a general practice theory indebted to Oakeshott\, Wittg
 enstein and Hegel. The proposed practice theory has two core aspects: prac
 tice internalism and normative descriptivism. In developing a philosophica
 l analysis of social practices that has a special relevance for internatio
 nal relations\, Silviya Lechner and Mervyn Frost depart from Pierre Bourdi
 eu’s sociology of practice that dominates the current ‘practice turn' 
 in IR. The authors show that the contemporary global realm is constituted 
 by two distinct macro practices - the practice of sovereign states and tha
 t of global rights.
