They include social concerns and the welfare of others.For example, an engaged citizen may protest and have a lack of trust in politicians or government and prefer to take a more direct action and support many social programs and different viewpoints. Whereas, a duty-based citizen puts a lot of trust within the governmentIn the past several decades the US has seen a shift in duty-based citizens moving toward a more engaged citizen.civil duty can be easily defined in a number of different ways depending on what type of citizen you would categorize yourself as, but typically it follows the construct of the duty-based citizen: jury duty, voting, paying taxes, etc.
