Proposition 090 – Internal institutionalisation

Civilisation elements may be institutionalised within a movement before they have gained broad social acceptance beyond it.

• Explanation. Within its own social circles and organisations, a movement may develop roles, rules, procedures and other institutional forms in which its civilisation elements are embedded. Those elements may thereby already be made enduring and reproduced within the movement before they are widely shared beyond it. This internal institutionali­sation may also contribute to civilising new participants and to the further development of the movement’s system of ideas and narrative.
