- Abstract
This study addressing the Derek Layer's theory of social domains and the dualism between structure and action in social theory, aims to display the distinction between micro and macro analysis in sociology, emphasized frequently. Arguments on the crisis of sociology because of its problematic nature have brought the questions on how the social reality should be understood. Therefore, the claim that social reality should be understood by analyzing the structure is confronted by the claim that social reality can be understood with a reference to the individual. Thus both discourses having a single channel to understand and to explain society produce onesided explanation of social reality. Undoubtedly, theories aiming to combine macro and micro have gained significance against these discourses. In this study based on Layder's theory of social domains, efforts for building bridges between notions of "structure" and "action" in social theory are evaluated, and basic ideas and shortcomings of the "theory of social domains" are discussed.
