Preferred term

jeremiad  

Definition

  • The jeremiad, a form of social criticism and political rhetoric, takes its name from the Jewish prophetic tradition, in which critics regularly arose to chastise the community for violating God's commands and call it back to its most basic values. More generally, though, such rhetoric has appeared in all times and places, and is not unique to any particular religious tradition. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Jeremiad]
