Resumen

Este breve trabajo es un primer acercamiento, siempre provisional, al controvertido tema de la postmodernidad en la Antropología Social actual. Marcado por una serie de autores en torno a lo que en su día fue el llamado Seminario de Santa Fe (Nuevo México) y tras analizar a las principales figuras que lo componen, a través de sus principales trabajos, me introduzco en lo que ha significado el llamado giro lingüístico (o ¿la semiótica al poder¿). La principal finalidad es hacer una crítica a sus problemas, propuestas y métodos, no sin otra intención que poner de relieve el significado ideológico de sus, aparentemente, radicales y críticas proposiciones
