Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines 'autonomous', derived from the Ancient Greek 'autonomos' (acting of one's own will, self-governing), from 'autos' (self) + 'nomos' (law), with 'body', derived from Old English 'bodi' (trunk of a person or animal, later extended to mean an organized group of individuals). Established in administrative and legal contexts during the 19th century, it describes an organization that operates with a degree of independence from central governmental or corporate control.
