Core concepts from Schatzki's theorisation and their application to <IR>

ConceptConceptual focusApplication to <IR>
RulesExplicit principles, formulations, or instructions that guide actions, though not deterministicallyExplores how formal guidance (e.g. the <IRF>) and organisational norms shape but do not prescribe <IR> practices
Practical understandingKnowing how to perform a practice, identify its components and respond appropriately in unfolding situationsExamines how practitioners draw on both formal guidelines and experiential knowledge to prepare reports, adjust disclosures and respond to organisation-specific demands
Teleoaffective structureNormative goals, projects, tasks and the emotions or moods associated with themIlluminates tensions between different reporting purposes (e.g. accountability vs. value creation) and the emotional or motivational aspects of <IR> implementation
General understandingA broader, often implicit grasp of how to act across multiple practices within a domainProvides background assumptions (e.g. profitability, managerial accountability) that shape how <IR> is interpreted and made sense of across the organisation
