The result was no consensus, and clearly not a consensus to delete. Note that the result here is somewhat different than the clear keep consensus from the previous AFD discussions, in that there was significant disagreement here, but I cannot really see a consensus for mergin either since several people have argued that the concept can be expanded. Given that the term has been used in a number of political works, I think a future consensus for merging is a more likely prospect than a future consensus for deletion, and I ask editors to consider that before proposing a fourth AFD.
