interventioneista

Interventioneista is a term used to describe a person, policy, or doctrine that favors active intervention to address problems or influence events. It is closely related to the English term "interventionist" and to equivalents in Romance languages, and is typically applied in discussions of foreign policy, economics, public health, and social policy.

In political and military contexts, an interventioneista position supports the use of diplomatic, economic, or military measures beyond a state's borders to protect interests, prevent crises, or promote particular values. In economics, it denotes advocacy for state intervention in markets through regulation, subsidies, or fiscal policy to correct perceived failures or achieve social goals. In medicine and public health, the label can describe approaches that prioritize direct clinical or policy interventions to prevent or treat disease.

The term often appears in debates juxtaposing interventionism with non-interventionism or laissez-faire approaches. Proponents argue intervention can avert human suffering, stabilize markets, or correct injustices; critics warn of risks including loss of sovereignty, unintended consequences, moral hazard, and escalation of conflict.

Etymologically it derives from the root "intervene" or "intervention" and functions as both a descriptive adjective and a noun in discourse. Usage frequency and exact spelling may vary by language and context; in many sources the term is interchangeable with "interventionist" or language-specific equivalents.
