Proletarian internationalism

Proletarian internationalism is a concept advanced by the marxist social class theory. The idea is that members of the working class should act in solidarity towards world revolution and support working people in other countries, rather than following their respective national governments. Proletarian internationalism is summed up in the slogan, Workers of all countries, unite!.

The antonym of proletarian internationalism is bourgeois nationalism.
