so-phis-ti-cat-ed (suh fis'ti kay tid) adj.
1. worldly-wise; not naive: sophisticated
travelers.
2. appealing to cultivated tastes:
sophisticated music.
3. complex; intricate: a sophisticated
electronic control system.
4. deceptive; misleading.
One might variously call neoliberalism "sentimental social Darwinism", in
the sense of the contrast between naive and sentimental poetry.
