Strong keep. There are copious sources referring to the neologism, which is actually an influential concept, a quick search turned up many references to it, many recent ones. It's widely recognized among academic historians, not obscure at all, and widely used in cultural analyses of the Weimar Republic and European society during the interwar period. I added some more info and sources to the article, maybe the connection with 1920s/30s history will be clearer. I also added a couple of WikiProject banners to the Talk page of this article, it's an article related to Fascism as a topic and also (European) culture.OttawaAC (talk) 02:35, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I see no reason for this article to be deleted. It certainly needs to be cleaned up and formatted, but the topic is certainly notable with a variety of reliable sources. --NINTENDUDE6401:32, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - the original neologism has long since been taken up and used by many authors as demonstrated by the citations. Ample RS to prove notability. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:45, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
