In general?
[edit]From what I can tell, the definition of localism : In general usage, localism (local+ism) refers to a tendency of local groups (cultures, nations, communities) to be narrow in their worldview, and dismissive of concepts which emphasise broader concepts of community, such as globalism and universalism. In this context, localism may refer to exclusive or self-oriented concepts (ethnocentrism, nationalism, and classism), and is often a suitable substitute for terms which may be considered more pejorative in particular contexts.
doesn't seem to have a neutral point of view. I've never heard of localism in this way and think it should be removed unless a reference or an article exploring this topic, is provided. --Ryandwayne 16:57, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
