How different is the ALRA when employed in Housing Dissertation Projects?

How different is the Agile Literature Review Approach (ALRA) when employed in Housing Dissertation Projects? I suggest the following 3 characteristics:

Suggested characteristic 1: With regard to the task of constructing the housing-related concern diagram, the researcher relies more on studying secondary data, e.g.,  newspaper articles, and, sometimes, academic journal articles, than that in the business management field.


Suggested characteristic 2: With regard to the task of constructing a theoretical framework on a specific housing theme, the researcher needs to make use of academic concepts and techniques that are more fuzzy, human value-full, unstructured and time-space specific than that in the business management field.

Suggested characteristic 3: Researchers tend to more receptive to the subjective and critical perspectives to comprehend and explicitly examine the dissertation project background than that in the business management field. As a result, the housing-concerns diagram very often exhibits "wickedness" in problem property.


These are the three suggested characteristics of the agile literature review approach when applied in housing dissertation project.


Apparently, in this case, researchers need to study much more the academic literature on housing studies than those on business management.
