Where this word comes from
Probably a back-formation from ordoliberalism, borrowed from German Ordoliberalismus (coined in 1950 by the German economist Hero Moeller (1892–1974)), from ORDO (the name of a journal, the full title of which is ORDO — Jahrbuch für die Ordnung von Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft (ORDO – Yearbook of Economic and Social Order)) + Liberalismus (“liberalism”). ORDO is derived from Latin ōrdō (“methodical arrangement, order, or series”), probably ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂er- (“to fit, put together; to fix”).
