Russian term
культурa поведения
Russian to English
Other
General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Hello,
Does anyone have any good suggestions for "культурa поведения".
My context - talking about road safety, the author says that what determines whether people will wear a seat belt or not is собственная культура поведения и ответственность.
I think this is more than just "way of behaviour" but nothing else is coming to mind at the moment.
Many thanks!

Comment: "Thanks everyone. I actually went for "standards of behaviour". I know that many of the answerers will disagree with my choice, but it fitted for my purposes, and I was still not 100% confident of the meaning lying behind the Russian. In any case, my client was happy with it. "

cultural and behavioral factors
The immediate context seems to make it clear that "factors" refers to the people.

degree of civility
Or simply civility. I don't think it has anything to do with personal ethics - you can hold up a bank and still have enough sense in you to buckle up. Nor is it habit alone, even though that's part of it too.

: I was referring to your argument of "you can hold up a bank and still have enough sense in you to buckle up." Buckling up sure makes sense, but культура поведения is not about that, it's about "doing the right thing because society tells you so."

Am I? Could you be a little more specific? Don't get me wrong, I am an not trying to get all defensive or anything, but I truly do not believe this has anything to do with personal ethics.

: I agree. This has nothing to do with morality and everything to do with civility.

culture of behaviour
http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200203/cmstand/g/...
This debate is about a **culture of behaviour**. If people wish to have a certain lifestyle that is fine, as long as they accept the same norms of behaviour as the rest of us do. As the hon. Member for Gedling rightly said, the Bill is about setting a series of norms—drawing a line in the sand, as he put it—for what is acceptable and what is not. The Bill is therefore a useful vehicle to deal with this problem.

Perhaps the best outcome that could come from this is for a culture change in the general **culture of behaviour** on our railways on Friday and Saturday nights. However I don't expect this to happen, as this incident now appears to have been wrapped up in a neat little package blaming the guard, with nothing done to address the underlying causes which led to the guard being placed in that situation.

Discussion
You've got a point: "what society tells you" and "the right thing to do" are two very different things. I only batted five hundred there, I'll admit. I didn't really mean the latter; but the former, I believe, sums up the real connotation of культура поведения.
But look at the positive side: we are debating an abstract philosophical concept for a change. Maybe there's still hope. Cheers.
Civility, according to the first definition I came across, is "Formal politeness and courtesy in behavior or speech". (https://www.google.com/search?q=definition of civility&ie=ut...
Maybe it's me, but I see no "doing the right thing because society tells you so" here. IMHO, you are simply confusing the moral "right" with the "sensible thing to do" here.
