Abstract

Reform means the improvement or amendment of what is wrong, corrupt, unsatisfactory, etc. Reform is generally distinguished from revolution (Wikipedia) but the difference is of degree, which is not more. The latter means basic or radical change whereas reform may be no more than fine tuning, or at most redressing serious wrongs without altering the fundamentals of the system. Reform seeks to improve the system as it stands, never to overthrow it in totality.
