This is possibly the chapter or section where there could be some disagreement. In much of the literature on presenting research you will be advised to place your review of the literature review was an element of your data collection. Although it may have been the first thing you did, even before you had clearly defined research aims, it is data collection and for that reason I feel it should be placed immediately before your empirical findings to allow your reader to see how your findings relate to the findings from the review of the literature.
