The title of your post set to me to thinking about gender again. When I first saw Patricentrism, I thought, "surely if it's in reference to the Mother Country, it should be Matricentrism." Then the anna dropped - there is no word to describe devotion to the Motherland, since patriotism is descended directly from pater. So Russians, who are fond of referring to their homeland as Mother Russia, or so I'm told, are right out of luck when it comes to a word describing their maternally nationalistic tendencies.Thinking about this would have troubled me, but I remembered the ultimate Antipodean anti-stress mantra - she'll be right.
