The notion of 'the West' is commonly used in politics, the media,
and in the academic world. To date, our idea of 'the West' has been
largely assumed and effective, but has not been examined in detail
from a theoretical perspective. Uses of 'the West' combines a range
of original and topical approaches to evaluate what 'the West'
really does, and how the idea is being used in everyday political
practice. This book examines a range of uses of 'the West', and
traces how 'the West' works in a broad array of conceptual and
empirical contexts, ranging from the return of geopolitics - via a
critical review of the debates surrounding Samuel Huntington's
Clash of Civilization thesis - to the question of the future of
'the West'. Analysis extends further to the repercussions of the
war on terror on Western democracy and the processes of delineating
the Western from the non-Western, as well as observations of the
institutional transformations of Western order.
