What is the definition of 'Antidisestablishmentarianism '?

Answer:
The doctrine or political position that opposes the withdrawal of a state support or recognition from an established church, esp. the Anglican Church in 19th-century England.

In other words a movement of people who were opposed to the removal of state support from the Church of England by the British Government in the 19th Century.
