tvångsmanövrerad

Tvångsmanövrerad is a Swedish adjective used to describe something that has been maneuvered or steered through external force rather than by the subject’s own actions. The term combines tvång, meaning force or coercion, with manövrera (to maneuver) and the participle suffix -erad, which indicates a completed action. In practice, the expression appears mainly in technical, legal, or descriptive writing rather than in everyday speech, and it can denote either mechanical forcing by an external control system or coercive influence exerted on an actor or object, depending on context.

The phrase is typically applied to vehicles, machines, or systems, but it can also be used more broadly to describe situations where movement or direction is imposed from outside. For example, in a discussion of control systems, one might describe a drone or robotic device as tvångsmanövrerad when its course was determined by a remote override rather than autonomous operation. In legal or investigative texts, it can convey that actions were taken under coercion or external constraint.

Because the definite meaning can hinge on whether the coercion is physical, procedural, or technical, the sense of tvångsmanövrerad is often clarified by accompanying terms such as fjärrstyrd (remotely controlled), automatiserad (automated), or tvingad (forced). The term is relatively uncommon in everyday Swedish and is regarded as specialized jargon, with more common alternatives like fjärrstyrd or tvångsdriven in appropriate contexts.
