interventionist
Advocate for involvement
An interventionist favors active involvement in the affairs of others—typically a government willing to use military force abroad or regulate domestic markets, rather than pursuing isolationist or laissez-faire policies.
The interventionist wing of the party pushed for sanctions.
Also describes the policies themselves: an interventionist foreign policy, interventionist economic measures.
