This concluding chapter synthesizes the book’s Aristotelian theory of civility as a civic virtue with two distinct but connected dimensions: practical philosophy, concerning individual public demeanour, and social ontology, examining the interplay between politics and culture. Civility emerges from the community’s shared cultural reservoir: norms, values, and practices, profoundly shaped by religion, even in secular contexts, and manifested in art, institutions, and everyday life. The book’s first part traces this culture–politics nexus historically across Western eras, while the second substantively defines civility through major concepts and arguments taken from the Western tradition. These include Scruton’s notion of culture as tradition, Aristotelian politics, and political theology. It explores parallels between aesthetic and political judgement (phronesis), the individual’s embeddedness in community (via Hegel, Husserl, Wittgenstein, and Catholic social teaching), and post-Hegelian reflections on art, religion, and politics. Ultimately, civility turns out to be embodied practical knowledge, a habitus of moderation, decorum, Bildung, and responsible participation. It is rooted in conservative republicanism. In an age of cultural self-doubt, the book defends civility as essential for preserving meaningful social cohesion and individual freedom in Western political culture through inherited and refined patterns of decent bourgeois (i.e., cultured middle class) conduct, available for every self-conscious member of these communities.
