fatalism
意味: The belief that all events are predetermined and inevitable, and that human beings are powerless to change the course of their lives.
Fatalism is related to but distinct from determinism: while determinism holds that events are caused by prior events, fatalism suggests that outcomes are fixed regardless of what actions one takes. The term often carries negative connotations, implying resignation or passivity. It appears in discussions of religion (divine predestination), philosophy, and psychology, as well as in everyday speech to describe a defeatist attitude.
