| Abstract
|
:
|
"Les Structures élémentaires de la parenté by Claude Lévi-Strauss has acquired the status of a classic in social anthropology; many writers consider it the unshakeable foundation of anthropological 'structuralism', which in turn is held to provide a 'model', a 'scientific model', or even a 'general and falsifiable theory' for the analysis of marriage rules in particular, and for all kinds of anthropological issues in general. Francis Korn's book examines two main issues: first, whether Lévi-Strauss's work actually does constitute a theory or a set of falsifiable hypotheses; and second, whether it provides fundamental empirical analyses."--The dust-jacket front flap.
