What are some definitions of civility?
![Page 11: Michael Kaufmann](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589cd7481a28ab43388b62bf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Civility: (Spath and Dahnke; Institute for Civility in Government)
Civility is about more than just politeness, although politeness is a necessary first step. It is about disagreeing without disrespect, seeking common ground as a starting point for dialogue about differences, listening past one’s preconceptions, and teaching others to do the same. Civility is the hard work of staying present even with those with whom we have deep-rooted and fierce disagreements. Civility is claiming and caring for one’s identity, needs and beliefs without degrading someone else’s in the process.

Civility: (Davetian, B; Civility: A Cultural History)
“…the extent to which citizens of a given culture speak and act in ways that demonstrate a caring for the welfare of others as well as the welfare of the culture they share in common.”
