“…Delaney (1986) critica o etnocentrismo de Malinowski e Leach por não distinguirem a noção de paternidade trobriandesa e a monogênese ocidental com o pai gerador. É irônico que, ao observar a discrepância entre teoria nativa e conhecimento científico, ela espere que a descoberta da função dos óvulos na concepção mude a simbólica de parentesco ocidental.…”

“…30 The critique of the study of kinship, as carried forward by Schneider's students Yanagisako and Delaney (1995), begins by questioning the ontology of bodies and reproduction and arguing that there is nothing given about biological facts-no transcendental or biological center of origin at the heart of kinship systems. Built into this is an argument about teleology that there is no transcendental origin means there can be no unfolding of a trajectory of kinship or relatedness given in advance (Yanagisako 1985;Delaney 1986Delaney , 1991; both pasts and futures are transformed in figurations of kin. Similarly, my point about capital mobility is that the ontologies of moving objects of capitalism are never given in advance of relationships that produce and reproduce them, relationships that also interrupt teleologies of capital's advance, from its initial "penetration" to its ''triumph" at the "end of history" (Derrida 1994;Fukuyama 1992).…”
