Occidentalism
Professor Chen Xiaomei was the first to use "Occidentalism" to denote a Theory of Counter-Discourse in Post-Mao China (see her book: Occidentalism: A Theory of Counter-Discourse in Post-Mao China (New York: Oxford, 1995). Different uses of the term appeared about a decade later, when Occidentalism referred to
stereotyped and sometimes dehumanizing views on the so-called
Western world, including
Europe, the
United States, and
Australia. The term was popularized by
Ian Buruma and
Avishai Margalit in their book Occidentalism: the West in the Eyes of its Enemies (2004). The term is an inversion of
Orientalism,
Edward Said’s label for stereotyped Western views of the East. A number of earlier books had also used the term, sometimes with different meanings.
