This Politics Glossary is not another neutral dictionary. It is an oppositional guide to today’s political language, exposing how mainstream narratives twist words into weapons. Each definition here challenges illusions and connects directly to critical Oppositioner analysis.
Why Politics Glossary matters
Everyday terms like “stability,” “sanctions,” or “populism” are thrown around by officials and media without context. This Politics Glossary restores meaning. It explains how power manipulates definitions, and why language shapes political perception more than policy itself.
