Is maximalism the same thing as hysterical realism? I don't think Pynchon would fit into the hysterical realism genre--203.199.177.246 08:23, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
To the contrary, Pynchon is often cited as one of the foremost examples of hysterical realism. -℘yrop (talk) 03:02, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
I am a poli sci student, I have seen this word in a political context denoting, isreali political thought which seeks to claim the area of "greater isreal," ie the maximum that could theoretically be taken under the circumstances. I have also seenn it in terms of the "maximalist state" as in the soviet model, which seeks to expand its power as much as possible. Someone help?
[edit] Horribly abysmal entry...
This article is rife with sloppy errors and the quotes from Charlotte River's book 'Maximalism' are invalid because of this. I do not have the original source to properly quote, but have removed it until someone that has access to this source can correctly quote the book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Quebron (talk • contribs) 23:54, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
