Not in any other OneLook reference. No attestation quote in OED (don't know about definition). DCDuring TALK 02:47, 16 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

This term appears to have been coined at least three times with three distinct meanings -- is there a word for words like this? -- but AFAICT this meaning is not among them. By far the most common sense involves Fishman's 1968 distinction of ethnicity-centered nationalism from government-centered nationism, a distinction which is still used widely in sociolinguistics. Will see what I can do about some cites. -- Visviva 04:51, 16 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sociolinguistics?[edit]

Does nationism refer only to practical concerns regarding language? If so, the definition should say so; if not, the label sociolinguistics should be removed and the category added manually. — Ungoliant (Falai) 20:58, 15 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
