词组 | nimbyism |
释义 | nimbyismAn outlook that opposes nearly any development or change proposed for one's immediate area, based on the opinion that it will have a negative impact on one's home or local surroundings. The term is based on the acronym "NIMBY," meaning "not in my back yard," a clichéd expression of such opposition. Nimbyism rears its head any time a development is proposed, but sometimes people see that progress is possible. |
