Usage Notes or Etymology
The term “disruption” was borrowed into Indonesian from English disruption (the noun form of disrupt), ultimately traceable to the Latin disrumpere ('to break apart') via the intermediate disruptio. The modern usage became prominent in business and technology discourse in the late twentieth century, notably through Clayton M. Christensen's notion of 'disruptive innovation'. In Indonesian media and public discourse, “disruption” is frequently applied broadly to rapid or system-shaking changes and often serves as a buzzword; in formal contexts, equivalents such as 'fundamental change' or 'structural disruption' are recommended when clearer, less technical phrasing is required.
