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'.
