Chinese political culture is education in the character of Chinese civilization. Education in Chinese civilization is the cultivation of those Chinese characteristics unique to Chinese political life. Chinese education is therefore cultivation in the uniqueness of Chinese culture. The unity of Chinese political culture and the education characteristic of the Chinese cultivation of political life is its character. Chinese education in political life aims at the preservation of the unity of its character throughout its life, and it achieves the preservation of this unity through an education that cultivates political change that aims to preserve its life as the highest good. Here, Williams steps outside the West itself to look at Chinese political culture. Adapted from the source document.

The poor performance of the political system in Romania, still marked by disaffection and pervasive corruption, may be shaped by the lack of control from the citizens. Much more responsible towards its electoral basis, the Romanian political system would be more legitimate. The political performance and legitimacy would in turn make citizens more satisfied and eager to defend democratic values. The happy circle of civic control, responsivness, satisfaction and political performance may be started somehow. The research paper is an attempt to evaluate political culture in urban Romania as a source of political legitimacy and performance. We focus on the civic culture, this special association of knowledge and feelings about the political system that settle citizens to political communication, partisanship, social cooperation, political competence and, in the end, political action. By analysing survey data, we outline a meager civic culture in Romania, but also the hope for a future civic competence.

The 'Euromaidan' protests in Ukraine (2013-2014) were motivated by people's great expectations of profound change through implementation of reforms and genuine democratization of the society. The realization of these expectations depends on many preconditions, among them the pattern of political culture, which reflects the readiness of people to contribute actively to the establishment of a new democratic regime in their country. An analysis of the political orientations of citizens over the past two decades shows that only a small part of the population can be called strong democrats, whereas the majority of the population avoids active political participation and holds a rather output-oriented position, which may facilitate the persistence of an authoritarian political regime. On the other hand, a new social movement represented by recently emerged numerous volunteer organizations and initiatives points to a substantial positive change in people's political orientations.

Readers will see how political culture is shaped by the attitudes, opinions, and behaviors of Americans, and how it affects those things in return.

Few empirical studies of Arab countries have dealt with political culture and political socialisation or focused on people's beliefs, values, and attitudes towards the government or political leaders, mainly because the regimes have been reluctant to allow opinion to be tested. The significance of this book is that it assesses the influence of state ideology on the new generation of Libyans, and examines their political culture
