DEPOLITICISE Meaning and Definition

  1. The term "depoliticise" is a verb that refers to the act or process of removing or eliminating politics or political aspects from a particular situation, institution, or discussion. It involves minimizing or disregarding the influence of political factors, motives, or bias in order to promote impartiality, objectivity, or fairness.

    When something is depoliticised, it means that the focus is shifted away from political ideologies, affiliations, or agendas, and towards finding practical, effective, or consensus-based solutions. This can be applicable to various domains, including governance, public policy, social issues, or organizational decision-making processes.

    Depoliticisation may involve reducing partisan interests or conflicts and emphasizing neutrality, balance, or non-partisanship. It often entails creating mechanisms or systems that prevent or limit the undue influence of political actors, parties, or biases. This can be achieved through the establishment of independent regulatory bodies, objective evaluation frameworks, open and transparent procedures, or the inclusion of diverse perspectives.

    The purpose of depoliticising a situation or institution is to foster an environment where decisions or actions are based primarily on evidence, expertise, reason, or the greater good, rather than political considerations. By depoliticising certain aspects, it aims to enhance trust, credibility, and public confidence in the process or outcome, as well as foster an inclusive and harmonious environment where diverse opinions can coexist and be addressed.

Etymology of DEPOLITICISE

The word "depoliticise" is derived from two elements: "de-" and "politicise".

- The prefix "de-" is derived from the Latin preposition "de" which means "down" or "away from". In English, it is used to indicate negation or reversal, suggesting the opposite or absence of something.

- The word "politicise" is derived from the noun "politics", which comes from the Greek word "polis" meaning "city" or "state". "Politics" refers to the activities, actions, and policies used to gain and hold power in a government or to influence the governance of an organization or institution.

When the prefix "de-" is added to "politicise", it changes the meaning to indicate the process of removing or reducing political elements, influences, or biases from a situation or issue.
