axis of evil

2002 State of the Union Address
George W. Bush
axis of evil

Coined by American political commentator David Frum in 2002 and first used publicly by President George W. Bush in the 2002 State of the Union Address. Possibly from a historical analogy to the German-Italian-Japanese axis. Extended to astrophysics by Portuguese scientist João Magueijo in 2005.

coin

I discussed Iraq with Gerhard during his visit to the White House on January 31, 2002. In my State of the Union address two days earlier, I had outlined the threats posed by Iraq, Iran, and North Korea. “States like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world,” I said. The media seized on the phrase “axis of evil.” They took the line to mean that the three countries had formed an alliance. That missed the point. The axis I referred to was the link between the governments that pursued WMD and the terrorists who could use those weapons. There was a larger point in the speech that no one could miss: I was serious about dealing with Iraq.

2010, George W. Bush, Decision Points, →ISBN, →OCLC, →OL, page 233:

Communist China is on a mission for dominance. At the helm of the New Axis of Evil, China has indicated they will invade independent countries and destroy democratic leadership to achieve that end. My recent visit to Taiwan made it abundantly clear that the leaders in Taiwan want the United States and our allies to stand with them as they fight to keep their independence.

2022 September 9, Marsha Blackburn, “We must stand with Taiwan”, in Tullahoma News, Tullahoma, Tennessee, archived from the original on 2022-09-11:

[ˌlɘ.ɾɯ ˈɡɹɘ̯ĩm ˌmɛ̞̃n̆]

These infamous little green men appeared during the decisive seizures or buildings and facilities, only to disappear when associated militias and local troops arrived to consolidate the gains. In this way they provided a measure of deniability—however superficial or implausible—for Moscow.⁴⁰

2014, “Little Green Men”: A Primer on Modern Russian Unconventional Warfare, Ukraine 2013–2014, Fort Bragg, North Carolina: The United States Army Special Operations Command, page 43:

The “little green men”—faces covered, wearing unmarked olive uniforms, speaking Russian and using Russian weapons—have played a significant role in both the occupation of Crimea and the civil war in eastern Ukraine.¹⁹⁶

The little green men were clearly professional soldiers by their bearing, carried Russian weapons, and wore Russian combat fatigues, but they had no identifying insignia. Vladimir Putin originally denied they were Russian soldiers; that April, he confirmed they were.

The current power play consists of an extraordinary range of countries simultaneously sitting down to negotiate big free trade and investment agreements.

2002 September 18, Jonathan Freedland, “Rome, AD… Rome, DC?”, in The Guardian:

A war like this — a voluntary war of aggression — would be a sign that Putin believed that Pax Americana was over and that the U.S., the European Union and their allies had become too weak to exact painful consequences.

the Global South (canonical)
global south (alternative)

First used in a political sense in 1969.

Where and what is the Global South? If you ask people on the street, many would probably not have the faintest idea. In everyday parlance and mass media, Global South has hardly become a household term. In academic and (global) policy circles, though, the term is used with much more gusto.

2015, Andrea Hollington, Oliver Tappe, Tijo Salverda, Tobias Schwarz, Concepts of the Global South. Voices from around the world., Global South Studies Center Cologne, archived from the original on 2016-09-04:

Countries from the global south, including Brazil, Indonesia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo – mega-diverse countries home to the world’s three largest rainforests – wanted governments to agree to the creation of a new biodiversity fund as part of the Montreal pact to pay for new conservation targets.

2022 December 19, Patrick Greenfield, Phoebe Weston, “Cop15: historic deal struck to halt biodiversity loss by 2030”, in The Guardian:

A paragon from the Global South, as no one I know who lives there calls it, would be very 21st century, very au courant.

2023 February 11, Janan Ganesh, “After Germany's fall, which is the paragon nation?”, in FT Weekend, page 22:

Eurasianism

neo-Eurasianism

specifically the ideology by Aleksandr Dugin and the like

Ruscism

a movement supporting Vladimir Putin and militarism

The third intellectual context important for civilizationism in post-Soviet intellectual production is Eurasianism—both the classical Russian émigré movement of the 1920s and the late Soviet and early post-Soviet “neo-Eurasianism” of such thinkers as Lev Gumilev, Aleksandr Dugin, and Aleksandr Panarin.

2020, Kåre Johan Mjør, Sanna Turoma, editors, Russia as Civilization, Routledge, →ISBN, page 1983:

(geopolitics) A Russian political movement focused on the Russian geopolitical interests in Eurasia.

eurasianismi

tellurocracy

en-noun

tellurocracy (countable and uncountable, plural tellurocracies)

From telluro- + -cracy. Coined by Russian political activist and philosopher Alexander Dugin.

coinage

Coordinate term: thalassocracy

Probably the United States has realized, a bit too late, that its stake on a pro-Pakistan regime in Afghanistan had been a mistake. Obviously, this was done not for the sake of stake itself: the strategic aim was to penetrate the Heartland. From the point of view of the tellurocracy versus thalassocracy opposition a maritime power (the US) may entrench itself in the IRAFPAK zone.

2000, Farhad Tolipov, “Geopolitical Stalemate in Afghanistan”, in Central Asia and the Caucasus:

Historically, Russians did not immediately realize the significance of their location and only accepted the baton of tellurocracy after the Mongolian conquests of Ghengis Khan, whose empire was a model of tellurocracy.

2015, Alexander Dugin, Last War of the World-Island: The Geopolitics of Contemporary Russia, →ISBN:

A union of Russia and several different Asian countries would represent the cultural values of tellurocracy, in opposing the movement toward neo-liberal globalization that is at the center of the constellation of maritime powers that is guided by the United States.

2015, Patricia Anne Simpson, Helga Druxes, Digital Media Strategies of the Far Right in Europe and the United States, →ISBN:

(geopolitics, military) Dominance or supremacy due to military or commercial power on land.

The "thalassocracy" here is the United States and its allies; the "tellurocracy" is Eurasia.

2001, Rénéo Lukic, Michael Brint, Culture, politics, and nationalism in the age of globalization, →ISBN, page 103:

In his works Dugin draws the picture of an ancient confrontation between the Atlantic oceanic powers ("talassocracies"), whose roots go back to the drowned continent of Atlantis and which are headed today by the mondialist United States, and the Eurasian continental powers ("tellurocracies"), whose roots lie in the mythical country of "Hyperborea," the most important of which today is Russia.

2008, Russian Politics and Law - Volume 46, page 15:

If thalassocracies are defined as democratic, commercial and pragmatic, tellurocracies are ideocratic, with a hierarchical organization and guided by a religious ideal.

2014, D Cristea, L Dumitrescu, “The Conservative Vector of Russia's Geopolitics at the Start of the New Millennium”, in Political Science & International Relations, volume 11, number 2:

(geopolitics) A state whose power derives from landbased military or commercial supremacy.

macronation

macronations (plural)
macro-nation (alternative)

Portuguese: macronação

From macro- (“large”) + nation (“a country; a sovereign state”).
The micronational sense was likely formed as an antonym of micronation, which was derived from micro- (“small”) + nation (“country”). First attested on 26 November 1996 (see quotations).

prefix

This brings us, finally, to those countries that we think can safely be labeled as democracies today, keeping in mind the widely accepted two key requirements […] Based on the foregoing discussion, and (to repeat) excluding the microstates, we would offer the following honor roll of what, for want of a better term, we call the democratic "macronations" […]

1997, Albert Somit, Steven A. Peterson, Darwinism, Dominance, and Democracy: The Biological Bases of Authoritarianism, Praeger, →ISBN, page 42:

Excluding microstates with a population of less than one million people there are 29 democratic macronations.

2007, David J. C. Shearman, Joseph Wayne Smith, The Climate Change Challenge and the Failure of Democracy, Bloomsbury Academic, →ISBN, page 99:

It led to the birth of a new nation, the only one of its kind in Africa as a product of a merger of two independent states. The macronation was Tanzania. Without the Zanzibar revolution, the two countries of Tanganyika and Zanzibar would not have united when they did, if at all.

2014, Godfrey Mwakikagile, Africa in The Sixties, New Africa Press, →ISBN, page 202:

(geopolitics, rare) A large country; a sovereign state of considerable size, population or both.

EU member states, the UK and other countries from the global north pushed for ambitious conservation targets in the final text, with co-hosts Canada saying that the success of the summit depended on the headline target to protect 30% of Earth by the end of the decade for nature, known as 30 by 30.

“In the global north, when you don’t factor in emissions inequality, you can end up with ‘yellow vests’ protest situations,” Chancel said, referring to tax rises on diesel in France in 2018 that prompted mass demonstrations of the “gilets jaunes”.

AUKUS

Blend of AU + UK + US; Acronym of Australia + United Kingdom + United States of America.; Coined in 2021

acronym of

And so, friends, AUKUS is born — a new enhanced trilateral security partnership between Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. AUKUS: a partnership where our technology, our scientists, our industry, our defense forces are all working together to deliver a safer and more secure region that ultimately benefits all.
AUKUS will also enhance our contribution to our growing network of partnerships in the Indo-Pacific region: ANZUS; our ASEAN friends; our bilateral strategic partners, the Quad; Five Eyes countries; and, of course, our dear Pacific family.
The first major initiative of AUKUS will be to deliver a nuclear-powered submarine fleet for Australia.

2021 September 15, Scott Morrison, “Remarks by President Biden, Prime Minister Morrison of Australia, and Prime Minister Johnson of the United Kingdom Announcing the Creation of AUKUS”, in White House:

Although Australia, the UK, and US partnership, AUKUS, sounds strange with all these acronyms but it's a good one, AUKUS, our nations will update and enhance our shared ability to take on the threats of the 21st century just as we did in the 20th century: together. Our nations and our brave fighting forces have stood shoulder to shoulder for literally more than one hundred years. Through the trench fighting in World War I, the island hopping of World War II, during the frigid winters of Korea and the scorching heat of the Persian Gulf, the United States, Australia and the United Kingdom have long been faithful and capable partners, and are even closer today. Today we take another historic step to deepen and formalize cooperation among all three of our nations, because we all recognize the imperative of insuring peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific over the long term.

2021 September 17, Joe Biden, Australia's decades-long balancing act between the US and China is over. It chose Washington, CNN:

On Sept. 15, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia unveiled a new security partnership, with the less-than-euphonious acronym AUKUS. The three states are close allies of long standing, but the headline item in the new arrangement is a joint effort to equip Australia with a fleet of advanced nuclear-powered submarines. U.S. President Joe Biden, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson also announced plans for more extensive cooperation on cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing.
Those basic facts about AUKUS are pretty straightforward. But why it came together—and what it means—is more complicated and far more revealing about where the world is heading.

2021 September 18, Stephen M. Walt, “The AUKUS Dominoes Are Just Starting to Fall”, in Foreign Policy:

AUKUS envisages a wide range of diplomatic and technological collaboration, from cybersecurity to artificial intelligence, but at its core is an agreement to start consultations to help Australia acquire a fleet of nuclear-propelled (though not nuclear-armed) submarines. One consequence of this is Australia cancelling a contract, worth tens of billions of dollars, signed in 2016 with France for diesel-electric submarines. In announcing AUKUS on September 15th with the prime ministers of Australia and Britain, Scott Morrison and Boris Johnson, President Joe Biden stressed that it was about “investing in our greatest source of strength—our alliances”.

2021 September 19, “The strategic reverberations of the AUKUS deal will be big and lasting”, in The Economist:

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was in the US to help announce the landmark AUKUS pact in San Diego this morning.

2023 March 14, “AUKUS deal: Jim Chalmers announces $8 billion HMAS Stirling naval base expansion”, in ABC Premium News (wire feed), Sydney:

(geopolitics, neologism) A security treaty between Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States; for the construction of nuclear submarines in Australia, and cooperation on cybersecurity and espionage technology; to contain the rise of China in the Indo-Pacific region.


ANZUS

Russophrenia

This is classic Russophrenia, believing that Russia is about to threaten the world while on fiscal life-support.

2015 June 30, Bryan MacDonald, “Russophrenia - an illness in need of a cure”, in RT:

In one astute observation, Western media exhibit a “Russophrenia” – “a condition where the sufferer believes Russia is both about to collapse, and take over the world.”

2018 July 18, Mikhail Molchanov, quoting Bryan MacDonald, “The Trump-Putin summit: Russophrenia explained”, in Asia Times:

In some psychiatric sense it is very close to the more specific Russophrenia phenomenon, where Russia is simultaneously about to collapse and about to overtake the US, and the combined West.

2019 April 9, Bill Totten, “Has the US Lost Its Military Supremacy Over Russia?”, in BillTottenWeblog (Google Groups):

The Russian FIMI ecosystem produced and distributed satirical videos attacking Western values and exposing the purported reasons why Russia is superior to Western democracies. The European External Action Service (EEAS) Data team detected this new trend, including a video highlighting the Western “Russophrenia” and supposed attempts to cancel Russian culture, an advertisement inviting EU citizens to move to Russia, and commercial videos mocking EU citizens on the energy crisis.

2022, Global Affairs Canada, G7 Rapid Response Mechanism Annual Report 2022, page 10:

(neologism, political science, geopolitics, derogatory) The belief or idea that Russia is simultaneously about to collapse, and also take over the world.

nation wrecker

nation wreckers (plural)
nation-wrecker (alternative)

From nation + wrecker. First use appears c. 1920. See cite below.

Coordinate term: nation-builder

On the one side I see the builders of this country on foundations tried and true. On the other side are those engaged in the cheerful exercise of tearing down. I put the question to you: Are you going to be a nation-builder or a nation-wrecker?

1920, Saskatchewan Co-operative Elevator Company, The Saskatchewan Co-operative News, Volumes 5-7, page 4:

The nation-wrecker Olympius was a fanatic "Catholic", as the followers of the dictatorial Church of Rome were called--one of his actions had been to dismiss all non-catholics from all services of the state

1959, Reuven Ben Arje-Lev, Halicha Ladror - The History of All the Great Liberation Movements, of the Jewish Spirit which Created Them, of Modern Civilization and of the New Israel, page 113:

The years 1949-55 thus gradually revealed Sukarno not just as the nation builder, but as the nation-wrecker.

1964, Willard Anderson Hanna, Eight Nation Makers, page 60:

He was called a saboteur, a nation-wrecker, and many other Party words, and then in the end, since he would not stop his talk of justice, he was taken by the police to Accra.

1968, Ayi Kwei Armah, The Beautyful Ones are Not Yet Born - A Novel, page 112:

and many more of their disreputable ilk, why isn't his visa lifted and this nation-wrecker sent back to where he came from and post haste?

1972, Pennsylvania State University (publisher), Grain & Feed Journals/Farm Service Centers - Volume 129, page 2:

You are a lawyer, a Reverend minister, and a nation wrecker.

1989, Adu Otutei, The Cross & The Beast of The South, page 190:

Self-determination for indigenous peoples is seen as a potential "nation-wrecker" with the ability to violate a state's claims to absolute sovereignty and political unity.

1994, Pennsylvania State University (publisher), Voices of the Earth - Indigenous Peoples, New Partners & the Right to Self-determination in Practice : Proceedings of the Conference, page 22:

"I was born and bred in Kumasi. I have lived with the Zongo people over the years and know a lot of them very well. We are one people," the President said, and added that anybody who wanted to separate the two groups was a nation-wrecker who should be shunned.

2006, Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh (editor), Daily Graphic, Issue 1,49878, October 24 2006, page 3:

Genuine education is the surest antidote to ignorance, that proverbial mind-killer and nation-wrecker.

2014, Amos Dele Dada, To the Rescue, page 33:

Blind imitation is wrecking the nation. Which are you deciding for? Would you be a nation builder or a nation wrecker?

2017, Ephraim Amu, Philip T. Laryea (editor and contributor), Patriotism and Nation Building, Perspectives from the Life and Utterances of Ephraim Amu, page 277:

(informal, derogatory, geopolitics) A malicious agent or other influence that destabilizes or destroys a nation or civilization.

2012 August 7, “Iran: We're in "axis of resistance" with Syria”, in CBS:

Oddly, the Islamic Republic claims that Israel “lost five wars with the Axis of Resistance since the July 2006 war with the Lebanese resistance.”

2021 August 7, Seth J. Frantzman, “Iran claims Israel afraid of conflict with its 'axis of resistance'”, in the Jerusalem Post:

Iran’s axis of resistance consists of a network of political parties and armed groups that span Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Yemen.

2022 July 14, Nancy Ezzeddine, Hamidreza Azizi, “Iran's Increasingly Decentralzed Axis of Resistance”, in War on the Rocks:

The Houthis have fought and largely won a nine-year civil war against Yemen’s government — which is supported by Riyadh. They are thought to be one of the members of the axis of resistance most closely controlled by Iran.

2024 January 14, Jason Burke, “Iran’s ‘axis of resistance’ is a potent coalition but a risky strategy”, in the Guardian:
