Against the backdrop of a discipline focused on difference, Christoph Antweiler reasserts the importance of cross-cultural commonalities -- phenomena that occur regularly in all known human societies -- for anthropological research and for life and co-existence beyond the academy.

Since the politicization of anthropology in the 1970s, most anthropologists have been reluctant to approach the topic of universals—that is, phenomena that occur regularly in all known human societies. In this volume, Christoph Antweiler reasserts the importance of these cross-cultural commonalities for anthropological research and for life and co-existence beyond the academy. The question presented here is how anthropology can help us approach humanity in its entirety, understanding the world less as a globe, with an emphasis on differences, but as a planet, from a vantage point open to commonalities.
