Preferred term

structuration theory  

Definition(s)

  • Structuration theory has been a popular conceptual framework for studying social and spatial behavior since the 1980s, when it was initiated by the famed British sociologist Anthony Giddens. Geographers and planners with their own substantive theories about human behaviors have been able to think of the structures enabling or constraining those behaviors and, correspondingly, the behaviors that manifest those structures.
