ARTE E LETTERATURA CONTRO RAPPORTI DI POTERE ASIMMETRICI

In the post-colonial opinions, the concept of "Universalism" is used to impose the Western culture and dominance on the subjected Countries. The first step was the introduction of new laws, that would replace the already consolidated ones, until the complete eradication of the identity of the indigenous people in favor of the economical and political growth of the West: the Third World would reject what is by now an obsolete forma mentis, to find a better chance in the West. In the Modern World. As a result, once the Third World became aware of the manipulative intents of the West, the indigenous people would be critical of any universal value; would search for their real tRaditional values, or would create a hybrid form between the traditional values and the imposed ones. Using Art and Literature against asymmetric power relations, an interesting suggestion would be Rashed Araeen’s symmetry: human relationships should be founded on symmetry, without prejudice on race, culture, traditions, thinking toward a proposition more equal and mutual.
