Institutionalisation

The term 'institutionalization'

The term institutionalization is widely used in social theory to denote the process of making something (for example a concept, a social role, particular values and norms, or modes of behaviour) become embedded within an organization, social system, or society as an established custom or norm within that system. See the entries on structure and agency and social construction for theoretical perspectives on the process of institutionalisation and the associated construction of institutions.

		Babylon English-Chinese (S)

institutionalized

(形) 被确立的, 被接受的; 遭受收容机构所产生的不良影响的

institutionalize (Amer.)

(动) 使成公共团体; 使约定俗成; 使制度化; 将...收容在公共设施里

以上是我用Babylon屏幕取词的结果，让我想到了很多很多问题
1.babylon比词霸/powerword好用，取词不会与系统冲突，解释更详细，可以自己定制词典，速度也不慢
2.中文里面没有准确对应的词，从这点上讲英语的确丰富了人的思维
3.triivi输英文，飞一般的感觉
4.不能再瞎晃悠了，否则作业做不完
