Everything about Regime totally explained
The word
regime (occasionally spelled "
régime", particularly in older texts and in France) refers to a set of conditions, most often of a
political nature. However, it may also be used synonymously with "", for example in the phrases "exercise regime" or "medical regime".
Politics
In politics, a regime is the
form of government: the set of rules, both formal (for example, a
constitution) and informal (
common law, cultural or social norms, etc.) that regulate the operation of government and its interactions with society. For instance, the
United States has one of the oldest regimes still active in the world, dating to the ratification of its
Constitution in
1789.
Science
In scientific discussions, a regime is a class of physical conditions, usually parameterised by some specific
measures, where a particular physical phenomenon or boundary condition is significant. Very often a regime corresponds to a limiting condition. The region of measurable
parameter space that corresponds to a regime is very often loosely defined. Examples include "the
superfluid regime", "the
steady state regime" or "the
femtosecond regime".
In
geography and
hydrography, "regime" refers to the changing conditions of river beds and other features, such as systems of sandbars.
Other uses
Political use of "regime" concerns international regulatory agencies (see
International regime), which lie outside of the control of national governments. These have more power over a greater range than postal or telecommunications agreements, for example, and constrain national governments.
