格尔兹的文化理论汲取了现象学和韦伯社会行动理论及日常语言哲学的学术养分 ,倡导将文化作为一种组织社会和心理过程的“模版”来进行研究 ,并强调社会行为分析在其中的重要意义 ,从而突破了功能主义人类学和结构主义人类学的理论局限。同时 ,这一理论也因最终无法解决精细描述与理论抽象之间的矛盾而存在方法论上的缺陷 Geertz’s theory of culture draws on the academic nutrition of phenomenology and Weber’s theory of social action and everyday language philosophy and advocates the study of culture as a “template” for organizing social and psychological processes and emphasizes the role of social behavior analysis in So it breaks through the theoretical limitations of functionalist anthropology and structural anthropology. At the same time, there is a methodological flaw in this theory because ultimately it can not solve the contradiction between the fine description and the theoretical abstraction
