A civic culture is a political culture characterised by "acceptance of the authority of the state" and "a belief in participation in civic duties". The term was first used in Gabriel Almond and Sidney Verba's book, The Civic Culture.[1] Civic political culture is a mixture of other political culutres namely parochial, subject and participant political cultures.[2] Almond and Verba characterised Britain as having a civic political culture.[3] In "Is Britain Still a Civic Culture?" Patrick Seyd and Paul Whiteley discuss the extent to which Britain can still be regarded as having a civic political culture.[4]
