The characteristics of civilisation that we wish to highlight are that it is a self-fashioning and encompassing ideology of products, practices, and images. It is a transmission of ideals through mundane habits. Further, claims to the same civilisation are made from several centres, potentially critical of the established centres. Civilisation is not only a spread of styles, norms of conduct, distinction, and knowledges.

Our historical account in this chapter will be of long-term processes in which civilisation, including its variant components as well as its spatial spread of variation, was transformed. It will be a history of re-compositions and their absorption of new elements.

Civilisation has for many decades been a rejected concept in anthropology and sociology because of its past evolutionary and Eurocentric misuses. Our reason for reintroducing it is that it will enable us to go beyond the narrow confines of time and space to which culture and society have been restricted and to raise our eyes to see the relations of societies and cultures to each other on a larger scale. In this chapter we will show how we can do this without the assumption of unilinear evolution and without Euro- or any other ethnocentrism.
