The term "boycott" originates from the name of Charles Boycott, a 19th-century British land agent in Ireland. In 1880, during the Irish Land League's campaign for tenant rights, locals organized a social ostracism against Boycott, refusing to engage with him or provide services, effectively isolating him. This tactic gained attention and was subsequently named "boycott" in his honor, symbolizing a form of protest against individuals or entities through collective withdrawal of support.
