Definition of restrictionism

1 sense · 1 part of speech · etymology included

noun

  1. (uncountable)The advocacy of restrictions on free trade, immigration etc.
    “It was another chapter in a dismal saga of Nimbyist urban mismanagement that is crushing American cities. Not-in-my-backyardism is a bipartisan sentiment, but because the largest American cities are populated and run by Democrats — many in states under complete Democratic control — this sort of nakedly exclusionary urban restrictionism is a particular shame of the left.”
