nativisms

Favoring locals over foreigners

Nativisms is the plural of nativism, a political stance favoring the interests of native-born inhabitants over immigrants.

The term typically describes opposition to immigration and policies that would restrict it: European nativisms have surged in response to refugee crises.

In psychology and linguistics, nativism instead refers to the theory that certain abilities or knowledge are innate rather than learned.
