oikophobia , literally an aversion to home surroundings. In reality, it means fear of your own people – the opposite of xenophobia.The term was invented by Roger Scruton to describe the global elitist who fears the provincial masses and looks down on their national loyalties. ‘The oikophobe is, in his own eyes, a defender of enlightened universalism against local chauvinism,’ Scruton said.
