Book Review: Individualism, Holism and the Central Dilemma of Sociological Theory by Jiří Šubrt

Abstract

160 Journal of Applied Social Science 15(1) serves as “a useful starting point” (Tight, 2019, p. 5) for conducting and applying documentary research in inter- and transdisciplinary settings. By providing “the support which is largely lacking in the social research methods literature for those interested in and undertaking documentary research” (Tight, 2019, p. 5), it will therefore be of interest to assorted scholars, students, and prac- titioners across the social sciences who not only deal with documents but also who desire to improve or expand their awareness of these objects constituting and shaping so much of their research prac- tices. The present and future of social research depends on documentation.
