Abstract: Our daily life and ways of inhabiting are shaped by routines. Those routines are both dynamics and immutable, individual and social. To understand the origin of these routines and their mutual articulation, we consider them in the many dimensions of daily life. Understanding how routines change or do not change is a way to understand social evolutions. In this article we will investigate routines – identified or not as being sustainable – and their justification in order to rethink the relations between the various domains of everyday life and their justification. The article is based on a fieldwork conducted in California.
