This Research Handbook explores the function and impact of digital data on various spheres of organizational and social life. It examines essential research across disciplines, including management, sociology, and economics, establishing a foundational understanding of the increasing importance of digital data in contemporary society.

By situating its chapters within the layers of a digital data stack, this unique Research Handbook not only offers a variety of diverse perspectives and approaches, but it also provides a structure for cumulative insight. Leading scholars analyse and interpret the creation, governance, and utilization of data, covering key topics such as machine learning, data heterogeneity, temporal fragilities in data sharing, and blockchain finance. Ultimately, this Research Handbook highlights how the kaleidoscopic nature of digital data gives rise to multiple competing realities, making it a reference point for future scholarship.

The Research Handbook on Digital Data is an essential read for scholars and students of information systems, management, science and technology studies, sociology of technology, public policy, and data governance. It is also of benefit to practitioners in data-intensive fields seeking conceptual clarity and practical insight into the complexities of working with digital data.
