• The Notion of Relevance in Information Science: Everybody knows what relevance is. But, what is it really? (2016, background): “Treating relevance as an underlying principle in both cognition and communication evokes the Schutz’s (1970) explanation of what makes the life-world tick, as mentioned above; however, the life-world was not considered in Wilson and Sperber’s Relevance Theory.”
• Theorizing Practice and Practicing Theory (2011, background): “Their work has been influenced by ideas from Heidegger (1962) and Wittgenstein (1967), as well as Schutz (1967, 1970) and Garfinkel (1967).”
