The concept has historically been called '''anti-imperialism'''.  In the 1870s, critics of [[England|British]] [[Prime Minister]] [[Benjamin Disraeli]] coined the term "imperialism" to describe his foreign policy of seeking to exert political and economic control over what was then called the British Empire.  In the 19th Century, advocates of imperialism believed that by colonizing other nations, their native people would gain the benefits of science, technology, religion, and political order.  Other advocates viewed the wealth and commerce that came from having a large network of colonies as the key to winning the competition with other European nations for economic supremacy.
