The Weave-the-Strategy Toolkit (v1.0, 2026)

In October 2025, I introduced the Weave-the-Strategy Framework (v1.0), which curates several sub-models of my Strategic Life Theory around four concepts: Thematic Space, Social Landscape, Strategic Agency and Creative Workfield. Based on this framework, this article presents a three-level toolkit.

Thematic Space Theory: A Toolkit as a Specific Theory

This article was originally published on TALE’s website on Medium.com. On September 29, 2026, I republished it on the Activity Analysis Center’s website to provide background on Thematic Space Theory for the Gejunction project, where Thematic Space is considered one aspect of Gejunction.

The Thematic Space of Knowledge Engagement

Thematic Space is not a single-level concept. It has different positions and functions in different theoretical levels.
