Legitimacy-Grievance-Institutional Trajectory

Protected Review vs Protected Permanence

Definition

LGIT design principle distinguishing between protecting grievance regimes from hostile erasure (appropriate) versus protecting them from structured reassessment (inappropriate).

Example

Grievance mandates cannot be removed by executive discretion (protected from erasure) but still require periodic independent review as condition of continued authority (not protected from assessment).
