Abstract	French: D’un point de vue conceptuel, les systemes de parente reposent sur des modes de representation culturelle que nous appelons terminologies de parente et a partir desquelles les limites, la forme et la structure des principes d’organisation sociale sont culturellement elabores. Contrairement a ce que les anthropologues tiennent depuis longtemps pour acquis, une terminologie n’est pas forcement inherente aux relations genealogiques, ces dernieres decoulant de la logique structurelle de la terminologie de parente. La structure de la terminologie, representee sous une forme algebrique, peut etre produite a partir des principaux termes de parente, suivant un principe suppose universel de structures terminologiques de la parente. Les terminologies different, sur le plan culturel, selon les principales expressions et equations utilisees pour les elaborer. Cela implique un changement de paradigme qui nous ferait passer de la genealogie consideree comme fondement essentiel des relations de parente a un modele dans lequel la parente integrerait a la fois des termes de parente propres a un systeme de representations culturellement constitue auquel nous nous referons dans la terminologie de parente, et une dimension genealogique elaboree de maniere recursive en utilisant les relations parents/enfants. Ces deux domaines sont fondes sur un espace familial comprenant les positions de parents/enfants, conjoints, germains. English: Kinship systems are conceptually grounded in culturally formulated idea-systems we refer to as kinship terminologies and through which the boundaries, form and structure of human social systems are culturally constituted. A terminology, contrary to a long-standing assumption in anthropology, is not based on a prior categorization of genealogical relations, as the latter is derived from the structural logic of the kinship terminology. The terminology structure, formally represented as an algebraic structure, can be generated from primary kin terms in accordance with a hypothesized universal theory of kinship terminology structures. Terminologies differ culturally according to the primary terms and equations used for generating them. This requires a paradigm shift from the received view of genealogy as the primary basis for kin relations to a new paradigm in which kinship incorporates both a kin term space expressed through a culturally constituted idea-system we refer to as a kinship terminology and a genealogical space constructed recursively using parent-child relations. Both of these spaces are grounded in a family space composed of parent-child, spouse and sibling positions.
