Brit. /səbˌsɪdɪˈarᵻti/, U.S. /səbˌsɪdiˈɛrədi/
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: subsidiary adj., -ity suffix.
Etymology: < subsidiary adj. + -ity suffix, after German Subsidiarität (1809 or earlier in legal use; 1931 in the context of Catholic social doctrine, in §80 of Rundschreiben über die gesellschaftliche Ordnung, the German version of Pope Pius XI's encyclical Quadragesimo Anno (1931): see below).

Catholic social doctrine. He played a major role in the drafting of Quadragesimo Anno and was also responsible for its translation into German. The official Latin text of the encyclical does not use a post-classical Latin noun *subsidiaritas (or a similar abstract noun), but post-classical Latin subsidiarium officium ‘subsidiary function’:1931 Pope Pius XI Quadragesimo Anno §80 Quare sibi animo persuasum habeant, qui rerum potiuntur: quo perfectius, servato hoc ‘subsidiarii’ officii principio, hierarchicus inter diversas consociationes ordo viguerit, eo praestantiorem fore socialem et auctoritatem et efficientiam, eoque feliciorem laetioremque rei publicae statum. [Therefore, those in power should be sure that the more perfectly a graduated order is kept among the various associations, in observance of the principle of ‘subsidiary function’, the stronger social authority and effectiveness will be, and the happier and more prosperous the condition of the State.]
