Morphology
nonestablishment = establishment (transparent) = non + establish + ment
The negative prefix 'non-' combines with the common noun 'establishment' (established institutions), so the meaning 'not part of the establishment' is directly inferable.
Etymology
Nonestablishment breaks into non- 'not' and establishment 'the group or system that is set up and in power', from establish 'to set up' and related to stable. So a nonestablishment person or view is 'not part of the group in power' and often stands apart from traditional institutions.
