The definition of noun word "policy" for the 21st century

 

As I expected, this  noun word "policy" is especially attached to a political connotation in this 21^st century.

And of course, as usual, when I looked at the merriam-webster website for a sentence with the most common usage of the word, what I saw was a political statement, yet the website Cambridge.org did not use the same approach.

The political definition of this noun word "policy" is effectively showcased by the wikipedia website I found online.

Perhaps, more than any of the other websites I found, is the harvard.edu public interest that explores that noun word "policy" completely within the political context.

Why is this noun word "policy" so significant, especially in the 21st century? 

My research proves that the use of this noun word "policy" can be solely within the context of a political reference, a noun word that is relevant to the current  administration's immigration "policy" re the ongoing protests ensuing in Minneapolis by ICE and CBP's surge of federal agents to deport criminals, with some collateral damage re illegals without criminal records.

Yet the administration's current "policy" has as well been effecting a collateral damage immigrant population that has not committed a criminal act, other than entering the United State illegally, thus violating the immigration law as written by Congress.

In this time of differing opinions and what some describe as chaos, I believe it is more important than ever to define what makes opponents to the current administration's policy want to put their life on the line to oppose "policy."

The noun word "citizenship" defined

 

 

Starting this January's blogspot with Goggle's AI summary offers a quick outline of the meaning of "citizenship" in the general sense: "Citizenship is a legal bond with a nation, granting rights (like voting, passport) and duties (like allegiance, taxes)…"

 However, this is a word that is associated with political power, especially in the US.

 The link to wikipedia.org's very thorough origins of the noun word "citizenship" does precisely explain how the current conception evolved into what now is a globalized view of the existence of this word as it may apply for citizenship in different nations.

 I've also included dictionary definitions, such as merriam-webster.com for the noun word 'citizenship' definition, which also offers the applicable use of the word in a sentence referring to the pause created by President Trump's executive order.  I could find only one other dictionary,  cambridge.org., which defined this noun word with an English speaking world overlook, that included a sentence about an immigrant coming to work in Australia who pursued Australian citizenship.

 There were many pdfs. that offered a variety of applicable studies of the word "citizenship" which I didn't include, such as what citizenship means for kids, and other more scholarly approaches to the concept in a variety of situations.

 For those who keep up with the SCOTUS docket, a decision on birthright citizenship will be rendered in 2026, then until another challenge is presented, like other nations around the world, someone who wants to identify as an American citizen will know if birth in the US will be enough to qualify for a passport.

The noun word "pluralism" defined for the 21st century

 

      The noun word "pluralism" defined as noted in all my dictionary informational websites, does indicate that the essence of "pluralism" is diversity,  referencing a group of difference, both ethnically, religiously and politically, all coexisting in harmony with each other.

       This idea of harmony in diversity is possible when all groups accept each other's diversity, and learn from the difference, as in the Britannica definition that references politics.

       I've included a informational about the origin of "pluralism."

       And as well, all about the ancient concept of "pluralism" that plato.standford.edu's website gives to fully define, the conceptual paradigm, is as it had existed when the ancient philosophers debated precepts, then argued as to whether there was a validity to include diversity in modeling a society that some now call utopian.

        However, I find that my research proves the noun word "pluralism" as defined, indicates the varied diversities can only exist when there are no political conflicts about power sharing, too.

        My research indicates that in this 21^st century, the global debate about political power is not conducive to achieving the definition of "pluralism". What some in the EU call "far right" and fear, may actually consist of a diverse political viewpoint, thus the concept of "pluralism" has been stalemated by those in the EU who will not allow this kind of diversity to exist.

        Moreover, the refusal of a diverse political point of view is an even fiercer argument in the USA, and has led to excessive use of the courts that have befuddled the diversity concept with Federal courts issuing orders as befits their political beliefs.

        Thus, my conclusion, which is based on the information derived from all of my research sites, is that the concept of "pluralism" as defined, is conceived as what could be in a utopian world.
