Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the ancient Greek roots 'autos' meaning 'self' and 'nomos' meaning 'law' or 'rule'. Entering English in the late 16th century via Late Latin and French, the term originally referred to the self-government of a state or city, later expanding into philosophy and psychology to describe personal independence and freedom of will.
