Deconstructing the “West” in Its Relations to the “East”
摘要
This chapter concludes by reflecting on the broader implications for securitization and orientalism studies. It challenges the view of the West as a homogenous securitizing actor and emphasizes the continuity of securitization processes as reactivations of historical narratives. Additionally, it repositions Germany as an imperial power with its own form of orientalism, thereby broadening Said’s notion of a singular European Orientalism.
