From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If one studies, analyzes, and describes a language, the language used for studying, analyzing, and describing the object language is a metalanguage. When mathematicians are concerned not with the foumulae of mathematics, but with talk in a metalanguage about the formal system, calculus, the system of axioms which constitutes the foundation of mathematical talk, they occupy themselves with metamathematics (talk about mathematical talk). Those who occupy themselves with the examination, analysis, and description of the language of science, occupy themselves with metascience. Metapolitics then is metalinguistic talk about the analytic, synthetic, and normative language of political inquiry and politics itself. In simple words, it is talk about the way we talk in politics.1
