range of ideas tolerated in public discourse
An illustration of the Overton window, along with Treviño's degrees of acceptance
The Overton window is the range of subjects and arguments politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time. It is also known as the window of discourse. The key to the concept is that the window changes over time; it can shift, shrink, or expand. It exemplifies "the slow evolution of societal values and norms".
