 | | Western thought, with its promise of a mastery of the complete picture, is confronted by the incompleteness of the spilled, the broken world. |
 | | It is in this western binary that those in central power (of a particular race, class, gender, ethnicity, etc.) attempt to create, (mis)represent, and control other/s (those different from the center) for their own intentions. |
 | | As a result of such political and economic definitions by western Euro-American countries, the east/west separation was not a specific geographical term but related to the division between capitalist, democratic countries and countries practicing forms of socialism and communism: by western terms, the good versus the bad. |
