What is the overall structure employed, i.e. how is the chapter organised? What parts does it contain?
I picked a subject on the energy transition and a theses named: The ongoing energy transition: Lessons from a socio-technical, multi-level analysis of the Dutch electricity system (1960–2004)
The theses is organised with an abstract, an introduction, a main body, conclusion and references
Are there any sub-headings in the chapter? How are they recorded (e.g. numerically, chronologically, thematically or in another way)?
The main body of literature is organised thematically and numerically.
What reason does the author state for reviewing that literature in particular in the introduction of their literature review chapter?
In the authors own words:
The energy sector faces serious problems, e.g. oil dependency, reliability and environmental problems. Large jumps in environmental efficiency may be possible with transitions to a new energy system (Weaver et al., 2000). Hence, NGOs and policy makers show increasing interest in transitions
