意味
To prevent a secret plan, usually malicious, from succeeding.
文化的背景
The French have a historical fascination with 'Les Liaisons Dangereuses' and court intrigue. 'Déjouer un complot' is seen as a mark of high intelligence. Usage is identical to France, but in political discourse, it's often used regarding federal-provincial relations. Often used in the context of political stability and preventing 'coups d'État', which are frequent topics in local news. The term is now used for cybersecurity, where 'complot' can refer to a coordinated bot attack or hacking attempt.
