<span style="mso-bookmark: F000TJS04Q9XMMartonFVmes1999A1"><font color="#272600">Later, Claude Levi-Strauss, discussed some earlier, took up the anthropological vogue of his time to discover Universals among disparate human societies.Levi-Strauss’s studies looked principally at mythologies, taboos, and kinship, but ultimately these foci led him to focus on language, particularly description and naming.Through his focal points, he sought ultimately to find certain ''minimal units of meaning'', intimately connected to ''learning'', within the cultures he studied.He theorized that meaning units had relations to, and could only be understood by reference to, what he called “binary opposites”—things that were in contrastive opposition to their counterparts.For Levi-Strauss, to understand the Universal acquisition processes of epistemic agents, one must uncover the units of meaning contained in binary opposites.To Levi-Strauss, humans categorized the world the way they do because the human mind is ''hard-wired ''to do so; hence, category descriptions are Universal.Levi-Strauss thought these categories could be “scientificized.”His intellectual project was to show how all humans were the same in these certain regards.In the end, Levi-Strauss was studying his own form of scheme theory that is not unlike congnitivists/constructivist’s notion of it. As a point of departure from all three theories, Levi-Strauss viewed cultures and languages as isolated and unchanging, which is incompatible with all three learning theories herein discussed. Still, given the variable of change in history, one may still find his theory, which lends support chiefly to cognitivism/constructionism, but also on what should already be evident points on phenomenography, e.g., reporting a collective mind, useful.</font></span>
