1. subsidiarity

   Subsidiarity is a principle in social organization that holds that social and economic issues should be dealt with at the most immediate (or local) level that is capable of addressing them effectively. In other words, central authority should have a subsidiary function, performing only those tasks that cannot be performed effectively at a more immediate or local level. This principle is often used in the governance models of various types of organizations, particularly in the fields of politics, religion, and business.

1. Subsidiarity

   Subsidiarity is an organising principle of decentralisation, stating that a matter ought to be handled by the smallest, lowest, or least centralised authority capable of addressing that matter effectively. The Oxford English Dictionary defines subsidiarity as the idea that a central authority should have a subsidiary function, performing only those tasks which cannot be performed effectively at a more immediate or local level. The concept is applicable in the fields of government, political science, cybernetics, management, military and, metaphorically, in the distribution of software module responsibilities in object-oriented programming. In political theory, subsidiarity is sometimes viewed as a principle entailed by the idea of federalism.

Examples of subsidiarity in a Sentence

1. Pope Francis:

   We must resolve now to live as nobly and as justly as possible, as we educate new generations not to turn their back on our 'neighbors' and everything around us, building a nation calls us to recognize that we must constantly relate to others, rejecting a mindset of hostility in order to adopt one of reciprocal subsidiarity in a constant effort to do our best.
