	Civics
		Civics was often simply concerned with the balance of power between say an aristocracy and monarchyâ”a concern echoed to this day in the struggles for power between different levels of rulersâ”say of the weaker nation-states to establish a binding international law that will have an effect even on the stronger ones.
		Notable theorists including Jane Jacobs and Carol Moore argue that political secession of either cities or distinct bioregions and cultures is an essential pre-requisite to applying any widely shared ethics, as the ethical views of urban and rural people, different cultures or those engaged in different types of agriculture, are irreconcilably different.
		Most civic theories are more trusting of public institutions, and can be characterized on a scale from least (mob rule) to most (the totalitarian) degree of trust placed in key public institutions.
