Example: I suggest that five sub-systems, sets of institutions and processes network to form a social system of anthroparchy.
Word: corpuscularism Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Etymology tree English corpuscle Proto-Indo-European *h₂el-der.? Proto-Italic *-ālis Latin -ālis Latin -ārisbor.

Word: negentropy Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From nega- + entropy. A blend of negative + entropy, coined by the French physicist Léon Brillouin (1889–1969). The term negative entropy was introduced by the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger (1887–1961) in his book What is Life? (1944, based on lectures delivered in February 1943). Pronunciation: /ˌnɛɡˈɛntɹɒpi/, /ˌnɛɡˈɛntɹəpi/ 1. The difference between the entropy of a system and the maximum possible entropy of the same system. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: An isolated system contains negentropy if it reveals a possibility for doing mechanical or electrical work: […] A tank of compressed gas in a room at atmospheric pressure, a vacuum tank in a similar room, a charged battery, any device that can produce high grade energy (mechanical work) or be degraded by some irreversible process (thermal conduction, electrical resistivity, friction, viscosity) is a source of negentropy. […] If a living organism needs food, it is only for the negentropy it can get from it, and which is needed to make up for the losses due to mechanical work done, or simple degradation processes in the living system. Energy contained in food does not really matter, since energy is conserved and never gets lost, but negentropy is the important factor. Example: The same magnitude, but with a minus sign, i.e., the measure of macroscopic ordering, the measure of non-uniformity in the distribution of heat, the measure of the differences in temperature—temperature gradients—is called negentropy. 2. The difference between the entropy of a probability distribution and the maximum possible entropy of the same probability distribution. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: Brillouin (1956) made an attempt to link thermodynamic notions to the notions of information theory. To this end he employs the idea of bound information or information consistent with some microstates of a physical system. […] Brillouin has shown that bound information is equal to entropy decrease or negentropy increase. This is a so called negentropy principle of information, according to which negentropy can be turned into information and vice versa as follows from (1.103).

Word: transgenderism Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From transgender + -ism. Pronunciation: /tɹænzˈd͡ʒɛndəɹɪsm/, /tɹɑːnz-/, /tɹæns-/, /ˌtɹænzˈd͡ʒɛndəɹɪsm/, /ˌtɹæn(t)s-/ 1. The state of being transgender. Labels: dated, uncountable, usually Example: the International Journal of Transgenderism Example: Transexualism. Where the compulsive urge reaches beyond female vestments, and becomes an urge for gender ("sex") change, transvestism becomes "transexualism." The term is misleading; actually, "transgenderism" is meant, because sexuality is not a major factor in primary transvestism. Psychologically, the transexual often differs from the simple cross-dresser; he is conscious at all times of a strong desire to be a woman, and the urge can be truly consuming. 2. A purported ideology behind transgender identities, trans activism and trans rights movements; transness as an ideology.

Example: The dispute between radical feminism and transgenderism.
