Talk:Sectionalism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The bulk of this article seems to be about US history at the moment, rather than the definition given in the first paragraph.

- It's true and of course we should write more about the sectionalism in general sense. -- Taku 22:49, Apr 8, 2005 (UTC)
Yes, sectionalism in the context of U. S. History has a long path, its should definitely be included.
Someone ought to write about sectionalism outside of the United States, like the Serbs, Czechs, Germans, Poles, etc. who used to be part of Austria-Hungary before WWI.John edwards23 (talk) 05:19, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] First Sentence
Why can anyone change this info i could be making it all up!?!?!
"Sectionalism is a tendency among sections in bureaucracy to blindly focus on the interest of a section and look at the over tendency of the President's wrongs and not benefit the whole."
"Sections" needs to be defined or linked to a definition. The wording of this sentence needs to be addressed, as its meaning is unclear. I'm not sure that mentioning the President is appropriate here, as it is specific to the U.S. and sectionalism can occur in forms of government without a president. I suggest something like "Sectionalism is a tendency for subgroups within a beauracracy to blindly focus on their own intersets at the expense of the whole". Steve carlson 06:37, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
