In such cases it is sometimes the practice to substitute a more conveniently examined member of the population in order to maintain the size of sample. Any such substitution should, however, be carried out upon a strictly controlled plan in order to avoid bias. Source: European Union. (references) |

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | REVOLUTION, n. In politics, an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment. Specifically, in American history, the substitution of the rule of an Administration for that of a Ministry, whereby the welfare and happiness of the people were advanced a full half-inch. Revolutions are usually accompanied by a considerable effusion of blood, but are accounted worth it -- this appraisement being made by beneficiaries whose blood had not the mischance to be shed. The French revolution is of incalculable value to the Socialist of to-day; when he pulls the string actuating its bones its gestures are inexpressibly terrifying to gory tyrants suspected of fomenting law and order. |
