Parroquialismo
Parroquialismo is a term used to describe a narrow or insular mindset, often characterized by an excessive focus on local matters and a disinterest in or disregard for broader, regional, national, or international issues. The word originates from the Spanish term "parroquia," meaning parish, which historically referred to a small, self-contained ecclesiastical and administrative district. This etymology reflects the core concept of parroquialismo: thinking and acting as if one's immediate surroundings are the entirety of the world.
This mindset can manifest in various ways. Individuals or groups exhibiting parroquialismo may prioritize local concerns
