Occidentalism
Occidentalism is a term for stereotyped and sometimes dehumanizing views on the so-called Western world, including Europe, the United States, Australia and even modern Japan. The term was popularized by Ian Buruma and Avishai Margalit in their book Occidentalism: the West in the Eyes of its Enemies (2004).
