The primary concern of this book is to investigate whether or not
structuralism constitutes a distinctive framework in the social
sciences. The author focuses on two major structuralist thinkers,
Louis Althusser and Claude Levi-Strauss. She analyses and compares
the structure of their theory, and places them within the context
of their respective disciplines. Dr Glucksmann began working on
this book at a time when structuralism was at the height of its
popularity in France, and was thought to be a homogenous
alternative to bourgeois sociology. The progress of her study
implicitly reflects the developments and divergences within
structuralist thought that have emerged since then. In particular,
she examines the differences between the political and
philosophical thought of Althusser and Levi-Strauss, which have
become increasingly manifest.
