Structuralism stresses the research of structures and meanings of structures in understanding the entities. 

  • The simple basic structural elements of culture, society and linguistics combine to form complex phenomena with equally complex meanings.
  • You can use structuralism in various research orientations and disciplines.

Structuralism aims at either or both:

  • Examining the structural forms or models of the phenomenon.
  • Applying forms or models, which explain the internal structure, to the researched phenomenon.

Structuralism is a contrast orientation to existentialism.

Post-structuralism is a critique of structuralism.
