Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the historical and anthropological debate on social institutions, specifically the concept of 'prescriptive marriage rules' as the organizing principle of some societies' structures. The author posits that this theory, first put forward in the 1949 classic Les St…ructures à là mentaires de la Parentà by Claude Levi-Strauss, is fundamentally flawed. He argues that Levi-Strauss' theory misinterprets the empirical data, over-emphasizes statistical correlations, and mistakenly employs psychological analysis to address a sociological problem. By contrast, the author presents a rigorous and evidence-based analysis of prescriptive marriage rules, demonstrating their structural and functional significance in organizing social life. This book provides a valuable critique of a widely accepted theory and offers fresh insights into the role of these rules in shaping human societies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
