Exceptionalism

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Exceptionalism is the perception or belief that a species, race, country, society, institution, movement, individual, or time period is exceptional (i.e., unusual or extraordinary).

Superiority[edit | edit source]

The term carries the implication, whether or not specified, that the referent is superior in some way or the other.

Nations[edit | edit source]

Although the idea appears to have developed with respect to an era, today it is particularly applied with respect to particular nations or regions.

Medical and genetic exceptionalism[edit | edit source]
