Aims & Scope

About the Journal Focus and Scope Outlines. Critical Practice Studies combines critique of science, professional practice, and socio-cultural issues in an attempt to intervene in public discourses and establish counter-discourses in various social fields. Outlines . Critical Practice Studies seeks to publish research and scholarly works in the midst of their emergence, as work in progress.

This implies a recognition of the reflexive knowledgeability of or in practices. It also requires a reflection on the socio-historical context and impact of science and knowledge. Outlines. Critical Practice Studies gives room for open, critical debates between different positions on the role of research and the self-understanding of institutions of research and higher education in our contemporary social formations. Perhaps most importantly, it seeks to build dialogue among and bridge critical approaches, including feminist, an
