“Spatial Practice” and Poetic Resistance :OnMichel de Certeau' s theory of the practice of everyday life

科学必须发掘隐秘,社会学家米歇尔·德塞图的日常生活实践分析理论,强调进入日常生活实践的场域之中去分析和建构理论,而不是像站在高楼上俯瞰街上的行人那样去建构研究文本。这种"微型实践"(minor practice),即一种构成社会生活基础的社会过程分析进路,对理论的建构具有重要的启示意义。当然,与其他法国学者一样,德塞图的理论更多地只有象征世界的意义。如果要将他的理论真刀真枪地应用到社会实践中,那么,它更多地可能只是维护现存社会秩序的力量,因为弱者发动的游击战术很容易被主流结构吸收、削弱,以致击败。 

Science knowledge must reveal socials secrets.Sociologist Michel de Certeaus theorization of the practice of everyday life emphasizes the necessity of entering into the space of everyday practice to analyze and build theories , rather than constructing a research paper in the manner of overlooking the pedestrians while standing atop a tower . The idea of “minor practice” , which focuses on analyzing the fundamental social process , greatly enlightens theory constructions.However , as many other French scholars, de Certeau' s theory is more of signifying the world .Any real application of his theory in the social practice will more likely become a safeguard that maintains the existing social orders, since the tactics invoked by the powerless can easily be absorbed, attenuated , even defeated by the dominants.
