Abstract
Peterson proposes revitalizing the sociology of culture by asking how culture is deliberately produced. Once several inhibitions to comparative analysis are overcome, numerous unexplored communalities in the production of art, science, and religion are revealed. These suggest a genetic theory of the role of culture for society.Keywords
