Abstract
This paper focuses on Michel de Certeau's concepts of strategies and tactics and on resistance against power and its apparatuses in daily life practices. Different forms of resistance in daily life practices, tactics, which have been developed for eroding and distorting main strategies of the power especially by the subaltern groups such as migrants, constitute essential scope of this paper. In this study, daily life practices of Turks living in Germany such as eating, reading, speaking, shopping, are considered to conceive hidden forms of tactics against power mechanisms surrounding their lives. To this end, in two cities of Germany, Aachen and Mainz, 309 questionnaires have been carried out.
