An inauguration is the formal process of assuming an office or position. The term is usually used in reference to a politician's assumption of the duties of head of state or head of government, ie: "the President's inauguration."
Political inaugurations often have lavish ceremonies, in which the politician publicly takes his or her oath of office in front of a large crowd of spectators.
