Incrementalism is the development of large-scale change through accumulated small adjustments. Pilot programs, provisional rules, and temporary measures can gradually reshape a system's direction and institutional expectations without a single declared transition.
Incrementalism does not rely on disruption, rupture, or formal transition. It proceeds through small adjustments, pilot programs, provisional rules, and temporary measures that gradually become permanent.
At no single moment does the system appear to change, yet over time its direction, structure, and consequences are fundamentally altered.
Because each step appears limited, responsibility can become dispersed while institutional expectations and public baselines move without a clear decision point.
This site does not criticize or endorse incremental approaches.
Its purpose is to mark a pattern that operates across policy, technology, and governance — often perceived as stability rather than transformation.
This page is intentionally minimal.
It exists to ensure the term The Incrementalism has a stable place to stand.
「漸進主義」是透過小幅調整持續累積而形成大規模改變的過程。試辦計畫、暫行規則與臨時措施,可能在沒有單一轉型宣告的情況下,逐步重塑系統方向與制度預期。
「漸進主義」不依賴破壞、斷裂或正式轉場。 它透過小幅調整、試點計畫、暫行規則與臨時措施持續推進, 並在時間中逐步固化為常態。
在任何單一時刻,系統看起來都沒有明顯改變; 但長期累積之後,它的方向、結構與後果卻已被根本改寫。
由於每一步看似有限,責任可能逐漸分散,制度預期與公共基準也會在缺乏明確決策點的情況下位移。
本站不批判或背書漸進式方法。
它的目的,是為一種跨政策、科技與治理運作的模式命名—— 而這種模式往往被感受為「穩定」,而非「轉型」。
本頁刻意維持極簡。
它存在,是為了確保 漸進主義(The Incrementalism) 這個詞能有一個穩定的立足點。
