This chapter reviews effective field theory (EFT) techniques, focusing on the intertheoretic relations between low-energy effective theories and their high-energy counterparts. It discusses how EFT can be interpreted and describes the steps in the construction of an EFT in the top-down and bottom-up approaches. The chapter also analyzes the dependence of EFT on renormalization schemes, and evaluates the extent to which the intertheoretic relation between an EFT and its high-energy theory can be described in terms of emergence.
