Praxis oriented definition

Praxis oriented means ‘activities that combat dominance and move toward self-organization and that push toward thoroughgoing change in the practices of… social formation’ (Benson, 1983, p. 338). Lather uses the term to mean the dialectical tension, the interactive, reciprocal shaping of theory and practice which she sees at the centre of an emancipatory social science. She argues that those who do empirical research in the name of emancipatory politics must discover ways to connect research methodology to theoretical concerns and political commitments (Lather, 1991a, p. 172).
