Definition
变革 (biàn gé) means 'to transform' and refers to a fundamental, often systemic change in institutions, systems, or society. It is broader and more profound than 改革 (gǎi gé 'reform', which targets policy improvements) and weightier than everyday 改变 (gǎi biàn) or 转变 (zhuǎn biàn). Used in formal contexts about large-scale shifts.
