Studying the Concept of Strategy

Summary/Abstract: Despite emerging within military realm, the concept of strategy, in time, has broadened and has been begun to use in analysis of long-term and vital issues. However, with the effect of positivism, the concept of strategy, which is originally social in nature, has eventually been reified through disconnection from its context, and reduced through disregarding agential aspects but focusing primarily on means. The aim of this article is to seek an answer to the question of how strategy should be studied, based on the constituent questions of what makes strategy and what makes strategy possible, in order to suggest a historical and sociological explanation. To reach this explanation, the historical and sociological of strategy is sought by employing dialectical agent-structure approach from a differing philosophy of science stance named as critical realism.
