Abstract

Michel de Certeau analyses the art of war in which people use tactics to confront oppressive institutions and systems. Humans can create new spaces and new meanings in the very establishments that limit and define them. Certeau traces a history of the relationship between modes of doing and modes of knowing. The rhetoric, fed from μῆτις, becomes a theoretical place capable of explaining the dynamic between the forces of the strongest and the weakest. The walk of the pedestrian on the streets of the city is the metaphor par excellence that Michel de Certeau uses to exemplify his theory of everyday practices.
