Eurocentrism as currently established power dominates political, economical, cultural,
social, and academic spheres, pushing the Majority World to the margin. Eurocentrism
as discourse has been produced in deep articulation in the colonial history with practices

boundaries of stereotyping. It also explores how the Eurocentric discourse affects the
subjectivities of people in the Majority World. [-]
