Foreign Experience of Integrating Civil Society and Civic Culture.

The article offers a socio-philosophical comparison of foreign models integrating civil society institutions and civic culture. It examines voluntary associations in the United States, communal responsibility in the United Kingdom, social partnership in Germany, trust-based participation in the Nordic countries, and community-oriented approaches in East Asia. The study argues that institutions cannot function sustainably without civic virtues, while civic culture cannot become a social force without legal and organizational spaces for participation. Principles are proposed for adapting foreign experience to Uzbekistan's national values, the mahalla institution, and constitutional mechanisms of participation.
