单词详解

Theocracy是一个名词,用来描述一种政治体制,其中神权掌握着最高权力。在这种政治体制下,宗教领袖通常被视为政府的最高领袖,他们通过神的旨意来治理国家。

词源方面,theocracy源自希腊语theos(神)和kratos(统治),字面意思为“神的统治”。该词最早出现在17世纪的英国,用来描述欧洲的一些国家,如教皇国、清教徒共和国等,它们的政治体制都有着强烈的宗教色彩。

在现代英语中,theocracy通常用来描述那些由宗教领袖或团体掌控政权的国家或地区,例如伊朗、沙特阿拉伯和梵蒂冈城等。但是,它也可以用来描述其他领域,例如商业或文化等领域中,由类似于神权的权力组织掌控的情况。
