2LITERATURE REVIEW1. Introduction: Literature review is the systematic procedure of making critical analysis of a particulartopic. Numerous eminent scholars express their own opinion from different perspectives in orderto make a comparative analysis of that specific topic. This particular study has provided an in-depth analysis on how to write a literature review. Based on the point of view of five eminentscholars the study has made an in-depth critical evaluation on the structure of a literature reviewand its different form of evaluation style. Five scholarly papers have been chosen for makingdetailed as well as critical evaluation on the narrative style of literature review. The scholarshave opined on how the theoretical concepts should be presented while making a literaturereview. The source of articles from where data would be collected should be very muchauthentic. The data collection technique is of two types including either primary or secondary.Based on the secondary data analysis relevant data and information are collected from variousbooks, magazines and journals. These five scholarly papers have depicted the way of datacollection in different ways. 2. Steps of literature review: Ferrari (2015) stated that literature review should follow a systematic procedure whilemaking an effective evaluation. On the very first stage the research issue should be discussedfrom different perspectives by highlighting the point of views of eminent scholars.

3LITERATURE REVIEWThe resources that can be used at the literature review should have accuracy as well as relevance.In the article “Reviewing the literature: making ‘the literature’ work for you”, published byHamilton and Clare (2017), the author has stated that “One of the most common reasons for aliterature review is to use the literature to enhance and develop an argument in a thesis orreport”. Descriptive form of writing is not appropriate enough in depicting a proper literaturereview. People belonging to different geographical boundaries would get an in-depth knowledgeand ideas only when the entire research issue would be focused to discuss from differentperspective with appropriate validity of resources. The most important way of conducting aliterature review is to highlight various theories and concepts that are relevant to the researchissue. Denney and Tewksbury (2013) stated that theories enhances the concepts in a detailed wayso that an individual can utilize that knowledge on practical experiences as well. As per theeminent of some of the eminent scholars providing theories in every literature review is notnecessary for evaluating the research issue. Finally the conclusion of a proper literature reviewshould be argumentative as well so that views from different perspectives can be highlighted. Onthe other hand, Gimenez and Tachizawa (2012) pointed out that conclusion of a literature reviewshould convey a proper message so that the research issue can be resolved. After evaluating theargumentation of different conspicuous scholars it can be concluded that critical evaluation ishighly important for a making a literature review. At the same time, it is also undeniable thatresearcher should not make the entire paper being confused. The individual while showing thevarious arguments and point of views should make an effective as well as relevant conclusion aswell.
