Goals of a Civilised Society

Understand the goals that a civilised society should aspire to.

Knowledge Node Summary

The primary goals of a civilised society are to attain high moral standards and to achieve intellectual excellence whilst tolerating differing views and opinions within a society and external to a society. An additional goal has become more clear in recent years but was known by older societies. This goal is to respect the environment and accept that a society does not own it; it only uses it temporarily until the next social group takes over. Respect of the environment, of others and of nature is or should be a primary goal and value of a civilised society.
