We describe the relationship between the theory of commutative monads on a cartesian closed category, and distribution theory (in the sense of Schwartz) inside this category. Recent work of Lucyshyn-Wright shows that there are many commutative monads where the notions agree. – We also indicate how differential categories grow out of suitable commutative monads.

The only data assumed for the theory presented is: a strong monad on a cartesian closed category. All the rest depend on properties of this monad, not on any further structural data.
