Examining this issue in the context of the domain of information seeking and use, where dissonance between structural and action-oriented approaches seems to be increasing, this work argues that the time has come to propose a resolution to this issue. Focusing on the way this issue has unfolded in social science inquiry, the contours of the debate are discussed in the discipline of sociology and the argument is made that the debate is taking the same shape in theoretical and research work in LIS. Researchers in LIS are on the verge of recapitulating this debate, one implication of which might the beginning of a decades-long dispute between supporters of structural and action-oriented approaches. |
