Word for “the process of becoming a taboo”

Question

I'm looking for a word that would be roughly equivalent to "the process of becoming a taboo," specifically in the context of film/literary criticism, where the "taboomanization" of sexuality serves as a common literary theme in the type of fiction I'm writing about.

Answer 1

tabooization is used:

Here is a random example from The International Politics of Sport in the Twentieth Century By James Riordan, Arnd Krüger:

Along with it arose a strong 'tabooization' of sexual themes generally known as Victorianism.

Answer 2

Probably "demonization" is the closest we've got. When Captain Cook brought the word "tabu" back from Polynesia, it caught on quickly in English because it's a darned useful term. Another term is "Bowdlerization," which refers to the act of deleting obscene or forbidden material in text, and often has literary applications.

Answer 3

I would go with demonization, as suggested by The Raven. Otherwise, a less marked word referring to the process could be proscription (from the meaning of proscribe that is synonymous to condemn).

Answer 4

I found a German word, but it translates back to "to make taboo". I see phrases of "becoming taboo", but no particular word.
