覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
interventionist は intervention「介入」+ -ist「〜する人・支持者」。まず intervene/intervention のセットを覚えておくと、その政策や考え方を支持する人だと取りやすい。ニュースでは foreign-policy interventionist, military intervention などで出やすい。non-interventionist（不介入主義者）と対比すると定着しやすい。intervene が実際に割って入る行為、interventionist は『介入すべきだ』という立場の人、という違いで整理すると混同しにくい。
Build it from `intervention` plus `-ist`, which often means a person who supports an idea. If you know `intervene` and `intervention`, this word becomes easier: it is someone who believes in stepping in. It is also easy to remember next to the opposite word, `non-interventionist`.

interventionist の類義語・関連語
interventionist の語源・成り立ち Etymology
intervention はラテン語 intervenire（間に入る）にさかのぼり、inter-「間に」+ venire「来る」から成ります。そこに -ist「〜する人」が付いた interventionist は、『間に入って事態を動かす人』から介入主義者の意味になります。関連語は intervene, convention。
Interventionist comes from intervention, which goes back to Latin intervenire, meaning "to come between," from inter- "between" and venire "to come." With the ending -ist, it means a person who steps in to influence events. The word developed from the simple idea of "coming between" to the political sense of supporting active involvement. Related words include intervene and convention.
