'''Integrism''' ''({{lang-fr|Intégrisme}})'' is a term coined in early 20th century polemics within the [[Catholic Church]], especially in [[France]], as an epithet to describe those who opposed the "[[Modernism (Roman Catholicism)|modernists]]", who sought to create a synthesis between Christian theology and the [[Modern philosophy|liberal philosophy]] of secular modernity. The term was originally used by dissidents during the time of [[Pope St. Pius X]], whose [[papacy]] was between 1903 and 1914, in attacks on Catholics who upheld his encyclicals such as ''[[Pascendi Dominici Gregis]]'' and most significantly [[Pius IX]]'s ''[[Syllabus of Errors]]'', which specifically condemned the modernist position.

Those who were called "integrists", or regarded themselves as defenders of [[Sacred Tradition]], contrary to the modernists sought the continuation of traditional Catholic truths, which they claim, have always been taught. Some critics have framed this within a [[sociopolitical]] context of a general opposition to the secular modernity of the [[Western world]]. As represented chiefly by the [[French Revolution|Revolution in France]] of 1789 and the ascent in society of a secular [[bourgeoise]] leadership caste, who were often [[Cosmopolitanism|cosmopolitan]], [[republicanism|republican]] and [[anti-clerical]] in worldview. By the late 20th century, these elements were strong critics of the "[[spirit of Vatican II]]", emerging from the [[Second Vatican Council]], including the suppression of the [[Tridentine Rite]] and some of the Council itself.{{citation needed|date=October 2011}}

The [[Southern Poverty Law Center]] uses integrism to refer to traditional Catholics who disagree with Rome, many of them having been excommunicated by Rome.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/intelligence-files/ideology/radical-traditional-catholicism|title=Active Radical Traditional Catholicism Groups|publisher=Southern Poverty Law Center}}</ref>

The term "integrism" is largely restricted to French sociopolital parlance, though it might also refer to the Spanish formation led by [[Ramon Nocedal]] and [[Juan_Olazábal_Ramery|Juan Olazábal]]. The term [[traditional Catholics]] has become more prominent in recent times and is generally the most common term used in the [[Anglosphere]] to describe anti-modernist elements. The term has also been borrowed in some cultures to describe elements within non-Catholic religious movements who are also opposed to the radical end of Western liberalism, such as [[Protestant fundamentalism]] or [[Islamism]].
