Edward Shils is one of the most important liberal thinkers who had spent most of his academic life argued for and promoted the idea of civil politics and virtue of civility. His ideas and arguments are very constructive, and they are highly relevant to the question about the violence, civil society and democracy: how is a conflicted civil society, which may be destructive to democracy, replaceable by a peaceful civil society? In 1958, Edward Shils published an essay under the title of "Ideology and Civility in which he contrasted civil politics with ideological politics. By ideological politics, he means the politics that have faith on ideology.

In a nutshell, ideological politics a the politics of friend-foe,' 'we-they,' 'us- them.
