• W2183963292 abstract "In this paper I discuss how the events unfolding in the world since early 2011, termed as the Spring, are not easily understood as suggested by many western (as well as Arab) commentators and scholars. This is due, in part, to three dynamics, Orientalism, Euro-Centrism, and Modernity, that have a longer history in shaping our about the world and the world at large. I will discuss these concepts and how they still have relevance in contributing to misunderstanding the so called Arab Spring. Introduction to terms/concepts In the beginning, let me clarify the three main concepts (Modernity, Euro- Centrism, and Orientalism) that I deploy in this paper and the way I understand them to impact the way we perceive and also the that is produced, especially when it comes to societies and people outside of what is called Europe/West. I use the term modernity as it is used by scholars such as Enrique Dussel and Walter Mignolo, among other scholars of the Latin American subaltern group who are engaged in the development of the concepts of modernity/coloniality. The term in this framework is used to mean the way Western epistemology or scholarly narrative and claims arguing that since the 16 th century, Europe/the West arrived at a new stage in history that is completely different from the previous historical epoch, where human rationality became the central tool for understanding human societies; an epoch that replaced past periods that were marked by the dominant superstitious beliefs and lacked the rational and scientific approach to the studying of human social, economic, and political developments. This approach to knowledge, while dismissing the certainty of knowledge based on religious dogmas, came to create a human certainty of knowledge, and in a sense, Man came to replace God as source of about all aspects of our lives. Since humans were declared a rational being (Descartes, Beacon), man/human behavior can be studied rationally and understood and predicted with almost complete certainty. Euro-Centrism, connected to the concept of modernity, is used here in the framework developed by Samir Amin, among others, where production, concepts, frameworks about human societies produced in Europe/the West became global/universal ones. What explained human societies in Europe/the West came to be taken as universal; it came to explain or to understand how all human societies behaved, expected from life, and its behavior predicted. Concepts such as humans, freedom, liberty, justice, and so many others, where not only seen as the product of" @default.
