This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject History - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,7, University of Wuppertal, course: Globale Ideen- und Diskursgeschichte, language: English, abstract: This paper aims at explaining the origins of a belief in Western supremacy and the development and aftermaths of a Eurocentric intellectual history that has cut out the representation of non-western countries for an immense period of time. The underlying thesis goes as follows: Western supremacy prevents a Global Intellectual History in terms of an imperialist and racist attitude towards non-Western cultures. The belief in western supremacy has enshrined in tradition for endless centuries, especially when considering its origin within the Colonial Era and the ongoing dragging evolution that has not found a pleasing outcome ever since. Yet recent protests and intellectual movements have proven that our modern multicultural society is not accepting these colonialist ideologies for any longer: The Black Lives Matter movement, for example, has evoked empathy for the life of black citizens in the West, who are experiencing not only injustice but violence, due to their origin, religion and skin tone. Unfortunately, the mistaken conviction that being a citizen of a superior nation has continued to exist in the western world; Europe¿s rise of political right-wing parties demonstrates a world view which aspires to be a western one only. Thus, the political situation inside Europe, especially the refugee policy, has created resentment against a multicultural society. Moreover, the resurgence of anti-immigrant and nationalist sentiment depict the renewed urgency of non-Western intellectuals within minority positions and multicultural backgrounds. Their works challenge the idea of a home-grown, national, even colonialist literary and philosophy tradition inside the Western World. In other words, the idea of an international globalized history helps us, in order to gain transnational understanding of contemporary problems, including racial equality, poverty and cultural rights. In detail, they allow a representation that differs respectively from a Eurocentric point of view. 24 pp. Englisch.…
