Abstract

The purpose of this article is to show the similarities that exist between metatheoreticalsneedean structuralism and that I consider is the most developed theoretical proposalof french structuralism, the anthropogical theory of Claude Lévi-Strauss, in particular, histheory of elementary systems of kinship. Although the french structuralism of Lévi-Strauss(as other structuralism) and the metatheretical sneedean structuralism only exist, as wouldsay Wittgenstein, a familiy resemblance (Familienähnlichkeit), but I want to show thatthrought the algebraic work of mathematician André Weil  and, particulary, in its clarificationthe concept of structure, there is a “bridge” between the theoretical proposal of Lévi-Strauss and the metatheoretical of structuralism inaugurated by J. D. Sneed in 1971 with thepublication of his book The logical structure of mathematical physics.
