These definitions, however, leave out many aspects of the [[concept]] of civilization that Freud had mentioned in other works, including "Civilized [[Sexual]] [[Morality]] and Modern Nervous [[Illness]]" (1908d).
These themes include the [[relationship]] of civilization to the [[SuperEgo|superego ]] and to sublimation, its consequences for [[neurosis]], the origin of civilization, and the different attitudes of individuals toward civilization, especially as a function of their sex.
Freud's conflation of civilization and culture here is surprising, especially when we consider that the [[distinction]] is clearly [[present]] when he discusses the force deployed by civilization (<i>Kultur</i>), on the one hand, and the "spiritual heritage of culture" used to "reconcile mankind" with that civilization, on the other, namely, the "spiritual heritage of culture" (1927c).
The [[dialectic]] in which the sublimation of one group can become the source of suppression for another group that does not participate in the process of [[self]]-education without [[doubt]] constitutes a cunning of civilization, whereby a devitalized culture dons the mantle of civilizing norms.
Civilization appears as an entity in and of itself, a given for [[The Subject|the subject ]] on whom it is imposed:
<blockquote>"The [[development]] of civilization appears to us as a peculiar process which mankind undergoes, and in which several things strike us as familiar. We may characterize this process with reference to the changes which it brings [[about]] in the familiar instinctual dispositions of human beings, to [[satisfy]] which is, after all, the [[economic]] task of our lives."<ref>Freud, 1930a, p. 96</ref></blockquote>
