Morphology
internationalist = international (semi-transparent) = inter + nation + al + ist
Morphologically it is 'international' + '-ist', a transparent suffixation, but the political/historical sense is an extension of this formation.
Etymology
Internationalist has the same parts inter- 'between', national 'nation', and -ist 'person who', and was used for people in socialist groups that worked 'across borders'. So an internationalist in this sense is a member or supporter of political movements that acted together in many countries.
