principle of subsidiarity
Subsidiarity is the principle which states that matters ought to be handled by the smallest (or, the lowest) competent authority. The Oxford English Dictionary defines subsidiarity as the idea that a central authority should have a subsidiary function, performing only those tasks which cannot be performed effectively at a more immediate or local level.

anthropic principle
Any of several similar explanations for the nature of the universe, and for the values of its fundamental constants, that states either that the universe is as it is because otherwise we wouldn't be here to observe it, or that the very presence of intelligent life constrains the universe to be as it is

A remarkably delicate balance between the small scale phenomena of atomic and nuclear physics and the large scale phenomena of astronomy and cosmology is required for the Universe to be hospitable to chemically based life. Efforts to prove that this must be so are sometimes dignified by the name anthropic principle..

The principle, especially in 20th-century empiricism, that a statement has meaning if, and only if, either it can be verified by means of empirical observations or it is logically true by definition

Carnap, for example, invoked the verifiability principle to argue that the problem of the external world was a 'pseudo-problem'—for neither the proposition 'there is an external world' nor its negation is verifiable in experience, so both are meaningless.

verification principle
Alternative name of verifiability principle
arm's length principle
The condition or the fact that the parties to a transaction are independent and on an equal footing
cost principle
The accounting principle that goods and services purchased should be recorded at their historical cost and not at their current market value
organizing principle
A core assumption from which everything else by proximity can derive a classification or a value
accrual principle
Fundamental accounting concept which recognizes the time lag between sales and purchases on one hand, and collection and payment of cash on the other. It forms an important part of the GAAP, and permits meaningful comparisons based on the actual operations of the business undisturbed by the timing of payments. Under this principle, sales and expenses are taken account of in the accounting period in which they occur (and are included in the income statement for that period), whether or not cash was received or paid out. Also called accrual concept
arm's length principle
The arm's length principle (ALP) is the condition or the fact that the parties to a transaction are independent and on an equal footing. The principle is often invoked to avoid undue government influence over other bodies, such as the legal system, the press, or the arts. For example, in the United Kingdom Arts Councils operate "at arms length" in allocating the funds they receive from the government
dependency inversion principle
(Bilgisayar) In object-oriented programming, the dependency inversion principle refers to a specific form of decoupling where conventional dependency relationships established from high-level, policy-setting modules to low-level, dependency modules are inverted (i.e. reversed) for the purpose of rendering high-level modules independent of the low-level module implementation details
the uncertainty principle
(Atasözü) (quantum theory) the theory that it is impossible to measure both energy and time (or position and momentum) completely accurately at the same time(synonym) indeterminacy principle
Archimedean principle
principle formulated by Archimedes which states that the volume of an object can be determined by the amount of water or gases it displaces
Archimedes' principle
the scientific rule which explains that an object in a liquid is kept up by a force which is equal to the weight of the liquid that the object displaces. Law of buoyancy, discovered by Archimedes, which states that any object that is completely or partially submerged in a fluid at rest is acted on by an upward, or buoyant, force. The magnitude of this force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. The volume of fluid displaced is equal to the volume of the portion of the object submerged
Bernoulli's principle
or Bernoulli's theorem Principle that relates pressure, velocity, and height for a nonviscous fluid with steady flow. A consequence is that, for horizontal flow, as the speed of a fluid increases, the pressure it exerts decreases. Derived by Daniel Bernoulli (see Bernoulli family), the principle explains the lift of an airplane in motion. As the speed of the plane increases, air flows faster over the curved top of the wing than underneath. The upward pressure exerted by the air under the wing is thus greater than the pressure exerted downward above the wing, resulting in a net upward force, or lift. Race cars use the principle to keep their wheels pressed to the ground as they accelerate. A race car's spoiler shaped like an upside-down wing, with the curved surface at the bottom produces a net downward force
Mach's principle
Hypothesis that the inertial forces acting on a body in accelerated motion are determined by the quantity and distribution of matter in the universe. Albert Einstein found its suggested connection between geometry and matter helpful in formulating his theory of general relativity; unaware that George Berkeley had proposed similar views in the 18th century, he attributed the idea to Ernst Mach. He abandoned the principle when he realized that inertia is assumed in the geodesic equation of motion (see geodesy) and need not depend on the existence of matter elsewhere in the universe
Pareto principle
{i} economic principle stating that an economic policy is desirable if it suits part of the population and does no harm to the rest, the 80-20 rule, principle that states that for many events or circumstances 80% of the results or consequences originate from 20% of the causes
Pauli exclusion principle
Assertion proposed by Wolfgang Pauli that no two electrons in an atom can be in the same state or configuration at the same time. It accounts for the observed patterns of light emission from atoms. The principle has since been generalized to include the whole class of particles called fermions. The spin of such particles is always an odd whole-number multiple of 1 2 . For example, electrons have spin 1 2 , and can occupy two distinct states with opposite spin directions. The Pauli exclusion principle indicates, therefore, that only two electrons are allowed in each atomic energy state, leading to the successive buildup of orbitals around the nucleus. This prevents matter from collapsing to an extremely dense state
Pauli exclusion principle
exclusion principle, principle put forward by the Austrian physicist Wolfgang Pauli that no two electrons in an atom can be exactly equivalent
Peter Principle
The theory that employees within an organization will advance to their highest level of competence and then be promoted to and remain at a level at which they are incompetent

compensation principle
theory that an economic policy is desirable if it is beneficial to some of the population and enables compensation for damages that result
conservatism principle
basic rule of accounting that determines that uncertain losses will be considered losses but uncertain profits will not be considered as profits until doubt is removed
consistency principle
basic principle in accounting that determines that one must always apply the same methods and procedures
continuity principle
or continuity equation Principle of fluid mechanics. Stated simply, what flows into a defined volume in a defined time, minus what flows out of that volume in that time, must accumulate in that volume. If the sign of the accumulation is negative, then the material in that volume is being depleted. The principle is a consequence of the law of conservation of mass. The behaviour of fluids in motion is fully described by this equation, plus a second equation, based on the second of Newton's laws of motion, and a third equation, based on the conservation of energy
correspondence principle
The principle that predictions of quantum theory approach those of classical physics in the limit of large quantum numbers
correspondence principle
precept that laws of quantum mechanics and other laws of physics must be reduceable to the laws of Newtonian mechanics and electromagnetic theory under certain conditions (Physics)
equivalence principle
Fundamental principle of physics that in its weak form states that gravitational (see gravitation) and inertial (see inertia) masses are the same. Albert Einstein's stronger version states that gravitation and acceleration are indistinguishable. It implies that the effect of gravity is removed in a suitably accelerated reference frame, such as an elevator with its cable cut, in which a person would experience free fall

The principle which states that those who cause industrial pollution should offset its effects by compensating for the damage incurred, or by taking precautionary measures to avoid creating pollution
polluter pays principle
the polluter should bear the costs of pollution prevention and control measures This principle has been endorsed by OECD member countries but it has some clear difficulties for economies in transition and developing countries

uncertainty principle
(quantum theory) the theory that it is impossible to measure both energy and time (or position and momentum) completely accurately at the same time
uncertainty principle
A principle in quantum mechanics holding that increasing the accuracy of measurement of one observable quantity increases the uncertainty with which another conjugate quantity may be known. or Heisenberg uncertainty principle or indeterminacy principle Principle that states that the position and velocity of an object cannot both be measured exactly at the same time, and that the concepts of exact position and exact velocity together have no meaning in nature. Articulated by Werner Heisenberg in 1927, it applies only at the small scales of atoms and subatomic particles and is not noticeable for macroscopic objects, such as moving vehicles. Any attempt to measure the velocity of a subatomic particle precisely will displace the particle in an unpredictable way, thus invalidating any simultaneous measurement of its position. This displacement is a result of the wave nature of particles (see wave-particle duality). The principle also applies to other related pairs of variables, such as energy and time
uphold a principle
adhere to a principle, support an idea, hold fast to an idea
verifiability principle
Criterion of meaningfulness associated with logical positivism and the Vienna Circle. Moritz Schlick's formulation "The meaning of a [declarative sentence] is the method of its verification" was close to the view held in pragmatism, and later in operationalism, that an assertion has factual meaning only if there is a difference in principle, open to test by observation, between the affirmation and the denial of the assertion. Thus, the statements of ethics, metaphysics, religion, and aesthetics were held to be meaningless. The verifiability criterion of meaningfulness was in part inspired by Albert Einstein's abandonment of the ether hypothesis and the notion of absolute simultaneity
