I'll try to answer. Several college textbooks used that term, mainly western civ. and American History. I've read the term used in a book of Academic Articles by Dutch, Danish, and German historians translated by Scots and French historians. A French professor I took an 18th-century history colloquium from used the term. And an Italian historian whose self-translated book on the political evolution of Europe in the 1780s I read used it too.

However, I haven't heard the term since the year 2000. It may be out of date. As for names dates and book titles, I would need to go across town and sort through my storage unit. I simply lack the energy, forgive me.
