Secessionism is the belief in engaging in an act of [[secession]]; to withdraw from a union of states. The idea that it can be an "ism" implies that it is a political ideology. Past events involving the ideology include [[http://www.conservapedia.com/Secession#History|The Southern secession in 1860 and 1861]] and the [http://blog.zap2it.com/pop2it/2012/11/texas-secession-petition-white-house-will-respond.html post-Obama election US State secession petitions], although they are unlikely to have an actual secession as an end result.
