Post-colonial Occidentalism

Postcolonial occidentalism is considered as a point of departure in postcolonial studies. The mainstream of postcolonial writings is a counter narratives in which postcolonial writers set forth to write about the prejudices attached to the pre-colonized world by the West. However, postcolonial occidentalism aims at adressing the body of the occidental man, not only as an individual, but also as a set of believes, paradigmes and actions. This project seeks to dismantle the self-representation of the Western man as superior over other men from different races and colors. In this, this new discourse could anhilate the master-slave and superior-inferior dialectics.
