The same as arrivism; the practice of seeking advancement and status by any available means.
The French form of 'arrivism,' sometimes used in English texts. From 'arrive' (to arrive/succeed) plus '-isme,' the French equivalent of English '-ism.'
Using the French 'arrivisme' instead of English 'arrivism' sounded more sophisticated and critical—it was a way of saying someone was acting too French or too Continental, which added social judgment to the accusation.
