jointness
State of connection
Jointness refers to the quality or state of being joint—shared, combined, or undertaken together.
The term appears most frequently in military contexts, where it describes cooperation and integration among different branches of the armed forces: The Pentagon has emphasized jointness in planning operations.
More broadly, it can characterize any collaborative arrangement where parties act in concert rather than separately.
