Summary/Abstract: The author tries to show the theoretical paradox of widespread and extensive thinking opus of Lévi- Strauss. Founder of anthropological structuralism was able to show by analogical transfer of generative hierarchy linguistics method that it is impossible to understand any segment of the primitive community’s existence without constantly awareness of meta- concept that stabilize their ontological status managed praxeologically totality. Strauss absolutise method by enlarging its methodological competencies to the level when it becomes indispensable merits of truth for each man’s psyche and its social environment. In that strategy the author notes the Strauss’s hidden need to alter structuralist procedure into dogmas that cannot be subjected to scientific verification. Strauss’s inclination is most evident in his attempt to capture the depersonalized world with generator of meaningful impressions located in structured procedures of social impact, and which does not include any personal experience.
