Portuguese term or phrase: amarras de teias de significados
O autor descreve sua crença na definição de cultura mediante as amarras de teias de significados, de uma ciência interpretativa e de “uma ciência experimental em busca de leis” (Ibid., p. 15). Dessa forma, cada caso a ser estudado dentro desse quadro de cultura possui seu conjunto de significados simbólicos e suas peculiaridades teóricas, sendo essas analisadas a partir de um discurso social.

(the) constraints of different webs/sets of meanings
Explanation:
without having the whole text, it seemed to me the author was pointing to an important and specific problem - if you examine a same case through a different set of meanings, you get a different result/interpretation - and since these different sets of meaning are separate, they constrain the subsequent result of interpretation and understanding - they are not just these lose, interwoven combinations, you either construct your analysis/theories using one or another


btw - the kudoz category seems a bit completely off :-)
