antiglobalist
Against international integration
An antiglobalist opposes globalization—the increasing interconnection of economies, cultures, and political systems across national borders.
The term covers a range of positions: some antiglobalists are economic nationalists who want to protect domestic industries; others object to the power of multinational corporations or international institutions like the World Trade Organization.
Antiglobalist protesters gathered outside the summit.
The word can be noun or adjective: antiglobalist sentiment, an antiglobalist coalition.
