523:- This is more or less a non-notable neologism as it sits. Governments have conducted covert efforts to create economic destabilization in opponent regimes, but I don't think that meets the definition of "terrorism," nor do I think this is a term for that in common use. Similarly terrorists might target economic targets in an effort to destabilize economies, but we don't have
535:, etc. nor should we. That's sort of an OTHERSTUFF argument, but I think it's a good enough point. We shouldn't try creating an encyclopedic dictionary definition here out of whole cloth. Just because a phrase has been used doesn't mean it is an encyclopedic topic. My opinion, anyway. Redirect to

Article does not provide the sources to establish the notability of "economic terrorism." I searched around with Google and most of the sources that use the expression seem to be conspiracy type websites and books. I am sure there could be instances of actions which could be called "economic
506:. I feel that in the future someone must do some original research to clarify the meaning of it but, as of now, the term exists and it is notable. What we need is to keep the article watched, and clean it as much as we can until experts pull out a good definition.--

the Google
Scholar search shows academic use of the term. Yes, the Google search shows a lot of polemical use of the term, but "economic terrorism" is clearly used in academic and policy work. The article could use improvement, but it meets notability
251:. I think the concept is rather vague in most sources indicated above, many of which are books of low (or no) academic quality (one is a book accusing the IMF of 'economic terrorism'), but there should probably be an article on it nonetheless.
449:- there are a number of books that define and discuss the term/phrase in some detail, including references to Economic Terrorism taskforces/groups specifically established to counter this sort of activity. I would point to

as a start. There are a number of others. There are also a number of books that discuss the counter-meaning/alternate meaning (use of the phrase by left wing groups to describe corporate actions) like

Thanks. Scholar does look better. I still get the feeling that the sources are mainly talking about things that might happen, not something that can be pinned down in the here and now.

268:- Is there a single reliable source with the substantive content that would demonstrate notability? Aside from polemicals, the earliest mention of the term I find is 1964 in

version. But I think there's probably enough to adequately define the different contexts in which the phrase is used and then build an article on that basis.

As
Bkwillwm points out, Google Scholar search points to a large number of papers using this term. I believe the search results can be mined for sources.

400:. Most, if not all, the examples of "economic terrorism" given in the sources are not violent and are not intended to terrorize anyone.
