centralism
Centralism is a political principle or system that prioritizes the central government's control and decision-making power over regional, state, or local authorities. This often results in a concentration of power at a central point or in a central leadership, rather than distributed evenly throughout an organization or society. It is commonly associated with unitary states and authoritarian regimes, but is also present in various forms in many democratic systems.
Webster Dictionary
Centralismnoun
the state or condition of being central; the combination of several parts into one whole; centralization
