Concept Handle

A “concept handle” is a memorable term (typically a noun phrase) that represents a complex, often abstract topic.

I first heard about them from Andy Matuschak who picked up the idea from Scott Alexander.

Examples:

“Chronological snobbery”

"Authoritarian Utopianism"

"The Collector's Fallacy"
