What is this man saying?
1. He is saying nothing at all. Trust me.
2. Presumably by 'civil society' he refers to a Lockian idea of civil society? In other words, 'belonging' to a civil society, as the primary element of belonging (over family or caste or tribe); that is a western concept, which is not necessarily the case elsewhere (ie, believing you are an American, first, rather than an Aryan or a Frank or a Slav or whatever your ethnic/tribal descent is).

for example as it refers to China specifically.
