decriminalize
This term describes a specific legal shift where an action is moved from the category of criminal law to civil law or removed from legal sanction entirely. It does not necessarily mean the act becomes legal or encouraged, but rather that the state will no longer use the police, courts, and prisons to punish the behavior.
In political and legal discourse, it is often contrasted with legalization. While decriminalization removes criminal penalties, legalization may involve a regulated framework for the activity, such as licensing and taxation. The word carries a clinical, administrative tone and is typically found in legislative documents or news reports regarding social policy.
