These dualisms should prove useful in explaining the mechanisms of social change as the driving force behind development. The article emphasises the role of structure and agency in explaining development mechanisms, proposes the pursuit of research at several levels simultaneously in line with sociology’s methodological dualisms, and also supplies examples of dichotomous categorisations and social structures that help with the understanding of development mechanisms. The incorporation of sociological dualisms into geographical considerations of development can bring new perspective to the design of research, triangulation (combining different methods of analysis) and conclusion-drawing. The result will be a readier challenge of geographers’ propensity to formulate deterministic dependences and perceive development factors as fully controlled.}, type={Text}, title={Socjologiczne dualizmy z perspektywy badań nad rozwojem społeczno-gospodarczym = Sociological dualisms from the perspective of research on socio-economic development}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/igipz/Content/157602/PDF/WA51_189314_r2020-t92-z4_Przeg-Geogr-Mantey.pdf}, keywords={dualism, sociology, levels of analysis, socio-economic development, dichotomous categorisations}, }
