Exhibiting Imperialism (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)

This is essentially a restatement of the argument of one book (Malamud, Randy. Reading Zoos: Representations of Animals and Captivity (1998)) that zoos are imperialist. Violates WP:NPOV and WP:NOR. If Mr. Malamud or the book are notable, they might get articles, but not a separate article for the theory. NawlinWiki 02:50, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
