Title A name given to the resource ROLE OF CIVIC SOCIETY Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource DR. S. B. M. MARUME PROF. D. NDUDZO DR. A. S. CHIKASHA Description An account of the resource In the broader field of public administration, the concepts of public accountability and control comprise the element of civic society which, according to the literature available, has come to enjoy much social, political, administrative, and intellectual prominence and currency in recent years. Civic society, however, has a fairly long history. In a traditional sense, the terms state and civic society were used inter- changeably and much treated synonymously. This trend continued till the eighteenth century. George W. F. Hegel was the first political philosopher who separated and differentiated civic society from State. He was followed by Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels in the nineteenth century. In the twentieth century, Antonio Gramsei critically analyzed the concept of civic society which is the topic of this article.
