Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Problem-reaction-solution
While this term may be relatively new, this is not a new concept.  The article is about a power play that has been attempted throughout history, with only a few notable successes.  In grade 11 economics, my class discussed similar strategies for macroeconomics, but I havent been able to find a more common term for the concept; if there is an exiting politics article for the same, I wouldnt mind if this article should be merged into another.  Personally I think that this page would be a good list of possibly unverifiable attempts of any government to attempt this type of thing.  The article currently focuses on current, more questionable attempts, but that can be corrected by expanding the list into earlier centuries, and by including more failures to balance the POV.  IMO this doesn't classify as original research in entirety: the term isnt coined by the contributor; for most of the examples, there is external opinion that this strategy was employed (of course it is un-cited in many cases but that doesnt mean it was original research); while it may be a |neologisms, it is worth including in Wikipedia as a record of either peoples perceptions or reality -- a rename or merge would solve this aspect of the problem
