Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Coined in 1919 by American engineer William Henry Smyth, the word combines the Greek root 'tekhne' (meaning art, skill, or craft) with '-kratia' (meaning power or rule). It gained widespread prominence during the Great Depression as a social movement advocating for the governance of society by technical experts rather than politicians.
