Why is it important?

This article contributes to making project management research matter to the academic as well as to the practitioner by developing a project-as-practice approach, in alignment with the ongoing debate in social science research.

Perspectives

The article outlines a framework and argues that there are two major challenges to the researcher and also suggests how these challenges can be met.
