Hansonism is a Neologism which means xenophobic chauvinism. Applied to
birding one could paraphrase some politician from the past "We shall
name the birds in Australia and the manner in which they shall be
named".

that is! To quote another Hanson, "Please explain." Where does it
come from and what does it mean?
