I may be a bit late on this thread, but I would add -- to Doug's comments -- that there is a long and quite interesting social history of the "development of manners" which tells a great deal about the shape of social relations. Particularly worth examining is Nobert Elias' classical work, The Civilizing Process.

Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never has, and it never will. If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightening. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters. -- Frederick Douglass --
