Kwestia porządku społecznego była zwykle rozwijana w teoriach poziomu makro, takich jak funkcjonalizm czy marksizm, które postrzegały porządek jako konstruowany przez wspólne normy, wartości, podział pracy, władzy czy własności.
Książka jest próbą przyjrzenia się za pomocą metody interpretatywnej koncepcjom porządku społecznego w kulturze buriackiej, a także jego metaforycznej strukturze przedstawianej jako wspólnotowe dążenie do zrozumienia świata. Badania terenowe oraz analiza różnorodnej literatury przedmiotu tworzą podstawy dobrze ugruntowanej teorii porządku społecznego, która może przyczynić się do rozwoju obecnych perspektyw socjologicznych oraz antropologicznych.
The matter of social order was developed as a rule in macro-theories such as functionalism or Marxism, which saw the order as constructed by shared norms, values, distribution of labour, power or property. The book attempts to trace the ideas of social order in the Buryat culture and its metaphoric structure using the interpretivist approach as shared sense-making practices. The fieldwork data and analysis of various literature form a grounded theory of social order that could contribute to existing sociological and anthropological perspectives.
