adj.|imperious/presumptuous;专横的;高压的
high-handed(形容词)指行事专横、武断且不顾及他人意见的行为方式,通常带有滥用权力或缺乏协商的负面含义。该词源于“high hand”这一短语,历史上与强制或压迫性手段相关。例如,在职场中,上级若无视团队建议单方面推行政策,可能被批评为“high-handed decision-making”(专断决策)。
根据《牛津英语词典》,该词首次记录于17世纪,用于描述通过权威而非合作达成的行动。现代用法中,它常见于政治、企业管理等涉及权力关系的语境,如《剑桥词典》指出其近义词包括“authoritarian”(独裁的)和“dictatorial”(独断的)。在语言学研究中,这类词汇常反映社会对权力滥用的敏感性。
