Change in a circle civilisation presupposes that the pursued civilisation elements are internalised by sufficient numbers of individuals and become socially operative within the circle.
- Explanation. Persuading individual persons does not in itself change a circle civilisation. The relevant civilisation elements must be internalised and shared by sufficient numbers of members and become operative in their thinking, judgement, volition and conduct. Insofar as the pursued change requires it, they may subsequently also be institutionalised.
