OUTLINE
Theory frames what we look at, how we think and look at it.
Theories are, by their nature, abstract and provide a selective and one-
sided account of the many-sided concrete social world.
Theory allows the researcher to make links between the abstract and
the concrete, the theoretical and the empirical, thought statements
and observational statements etc.

THEORY AND RESEARCH
Theory is not fixed; it is provisional, open to revision and grows into more
accurate and comprehensive explanations about the make-up and
operation of the social world.
