The term strategy plays an important role in Michel de Certeaus book The Practice of Everyday Life. De Certeau makes a distinction between the concepts strategies and tactics.
In his book (1984) Michel de Certeau defines strategies as follows: I call a strategy the calculus of force-relationships which becomes when a subject of will and power can be isolated from an 'environment. A strategy assumes a place which can be seen as 'proper' can be the basis for new relations with an exterior character (Competitors, adverseries or 'objects' of research).
In his book The Practice of Everyday Life he sees strategies as institutions or structures which are the producers and people, individuals, are the consumers acting in environments defined by strategies using tactics.
