Academicization

⭐⭐
feminine noun (sociology of culture / aesthetics / epistemology)

Definition

The act of academicizing and its result; the socio-cultural and aesthetic process through which a revolutionary artistic movement, an innovative theory, a doctrine, or a free style is absorbed, codified, and transformed into rigid dogmas, official norms, and institutionalized textbook material. Academization marks the transition of an idea from its dynamic, organic, and often rebellious phase to a phase of bureaucratic stability and formal ossification within state institutions or academies, frequently resulting in the neutralization of its original critical potential.
