Mauss focuses on the gift and the exchange of objects, Lévi-Strauss on exogamy and the exchange of women. Both anthropologists want to find general principles of society.

This correlation needs a theoretical attention useful to reflect on repertoires of sociality rather than on general principles and archetypes of society.https://antropologiaeteatro.unibo.it/article/view/10095
