  • The Cultural Grounding of Kinship

    D Read, M Fischer et al.ARTICLEL Homme2014Cited by: 5References: 29

    Les bases culturelles de la parenteUn changement de paradigmeD’un point de vue conceptuel, les systemes de parente reposent sur des modes de representation culturelle que nous appelons terminologies de parente et a partir desquelles les limites, la forme et la structure des principes d’organisation sociale sont culturellement elabores. Contrairement a ce que les anthropologues tiennent depuis longtemps pour acquis, une terminologie n’est pas forc…

The targeted concepts are ones that traditional cog…
