legitimation
This term carries a heavy weight of formality and is most frequently encountered in legal, political, or sociological discourse. It describes the transition of a state or entity from a position of illegality or social taboo to one of recognized authority and acceptance. While similar to legitimacy, legitimation refers specifically to the process or the act of achieving that state, rather than the quality of being legitimate itself.
In a familial legal context, the word refers to the specific procedure of granting legal status to a child born outside of marriage. This usage is highly technical and restricted to jurisprudence and genealogy, distinguishing it from the broader political sense of validating a regime or a social practice.
Meanings
