Structure is a key concept in the social sciences and structuralism a fashion amongst social scientists. Raymond Boudon accounts for this popularity by showing the uses of structuralism, as distinguished from the abuses of some self-styled structuralists. He analyses the meanings given to the concept of structure in different contexts and describes its applications in various disciplines - from Chomsky's linguistics to Levi-Strauss' anthropology; from Parsons' sociology to Spearman's psychometrics.
