Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Coined by Jeremy Bentham in 1780 from the Latin prefix inter- (meaning 'between' or 'among') combined with the adjective national (derived from nation, from Latin natio meaning 'birth' or 'tribe'). Originally introduced into legal and political discourse to describe law governing relations between nations, the term rapidly expanded during the 19th and 20th centuries to denote any phenomenon transcending national borders.
