Reply #34: Actually you're wrong

Structuralism was in fact pioneered by Ferdinand de Saussure around the turn of the 19th century. In terms of sociology, you would be looking at Claude Levi-Strauss starting around the mid-1950s.

And you are misapplying structuralism. Actually, your analyses are more in a post-structuralist vein than structuralist and represent the fundamental divide between the continental and analytic schools of philosophy than anything else, or anything concrete for that matter.
