Talk:Nipponism

Don't words like this require some form of sourcing? 71.215.122.112 04:40, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, but, sadly, I'll guess that with almost 50 hits on books.google.com, it will have citations added (too) easily. --Connel MacKenzie 05:32, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

A score of Google Scholar hits too, but none for the definitions in the entry. In the upper-case it seems to be some sort of geopolitical term, reflecting the culture of Japan, anything from spiritual to military. DAVilla 18:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Label

Isn't this a pejorative term? --Connel MacKenzie 05:32, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, like Naziism or Zionist it would appear so. Very objectively defined, but they immediately take on baggage. DAVilla 18:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

• Google books hits seem to be for something like "Japanese nationalism", not for the meanings given. Kappa 03:18, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
