SUMMARY

Taking their cue from the pioneering work of anthropologist Mary Douglas, the authors of "Cultural Theory" have created a typology of five ways of life-- egalitarianism, fatalism, individualism, hierarchy, and autonomy-- to serve as an analytic tool in the examination of people, culture, and politics.
