Cool Word for the day

Apoptosis. I think this word has great potential.  There has to be some thing in politics it can usefully describe.  How about "Apoptostic Ideologies"? An ideology that envisions its own superannuation?  Like Communism sees itself as an ideology that one day will become unnecessary (or at least Leninism does?): after the dictatorship of the proletariate there will be no more need for governments.
