Frases de Claude Lévi-Strauss

Claude Lévi-Strauss [1]​[2]​ fue un antropólogo, filósofo y etnólogo francés, una de las grandes figuras de su disciplina en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Al introducir el enfoque estructuralista en las ciencias sociales, fue de hecho el fundador de la antropología estructural, método basado en la lingüística homónima creada por Saussure y desarrollada por el formalismo ruso. Dado el peso de su obra, dentro y fuera de la antropología, fue uno de los intelectuales más influyentes del siglo XX.

Junto con André Martinet, Roman Jakobson y Morris Swadesh fue uno de los fundadores de la Asociación Internacional de Lingüística.[3]​ Wikipedia

Claude Lévi-Strauss Frases y Citas

Claude Lévi-Strauss: Frases en inglés

“If we judge the achievements of other social groups in relation to the kind of objectives we set ourselves, we have at times to acknowledge their superiority; but in doing so we acquire the right to judge them, and hence to condemn all their other objectives which do not coincide with those we approve of. We implicitly acknowledge that our society with its customs and norms enjoys a privileged position, since an observer belonging to another social group would pass different verdicts on the same examples. This being so, how can the study of anthropology claim to be scientific? To reestablish an objective approach, we must abstain from making judgments of this kind. We must accept the fact that each society has made a certain choice, within the range of existing human possibilities, and that the various choices cannot be compared with each other: they are all equally valid. But in this case a new problem arises; while in the first instance we were in danger of falling into obscurantism, in the form of a blind refusal of everything foreign to us, we now run the risk of accepting a kind of eclecticism which would prevent us denouncing any feature of a given culture — not even cruelty, injustice and poverty, against which the very society suffering these ills may be protesting. And since these abuses also exist in our society, what right have we to combat them at home, if we accept them as inevitable when they occur elsewhere?”
