teoriakonteksteissa
Teoriakonteksteissa (Finnish: “in theoretical contexts”) refers to the use, interpretation, and discussion of concepts, models, and theories within academic or intellectual frameworks. The phrase is often employed in philosophy, sociology, and science studies to distinguish the abstract, conceptual analysis of a topic from its practical or empirical application. In theoretical contexts, emphasis is placed on logical consistency, internal coherence, and the explanatory power of a theory rather than on its predictive accuracy or empirical verification.
The concept emerged in the late nineteenth century as academic disciplines began to formalize analytical methods.
Kohtaa itistä, “teoriakonteksteissa” underscores that knowledge production is layered; empirical findings are interpreted through theoretical lenses
