interventionists
介入主義者
解説 Definition
介入主義者。他国や事柄に積極的に干渉する人々。
Interventionists are people who support active involvement in the affairs of another country or situation. This often refers to political, military, or economic action rather than staying neutral. The word is usually used in discussions of foreign policy.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
interventionists は、まず intervene「介入する」が頭に入っていると一気に見通せます。intervention が「介入」、-ist で「その立場をとる人」、-s で複数。ニュース英語では military intervention や foreign intervention と結びつきやすく、他国の問題に積極的に関わる人々という像で覚えると残ります。反対側の isolationists「孤立主義者」とセットで比べると、意味もニュアンスも混同しにくくなります。
Build it from `intervene`, then `intervention`, then `interventionist`. An `-ist` is a person who supports or follows an idea, so `interventionists` are people who favor intervention. It is often easier to remember next to the opposite word `isolationists`.
