Abstract EN
This paper investigates an important area in postcolonial studies.
It analyzes American politics reflected in both its foreign policies and in literature as a new trend that may be called ―American Occidentalism.‖ The United States replaces Europe and any other power as the sole agent capable of interfering in global affairs.
And in this very sense, it becomes the representative of the Occident.
All these claims bring salient consequences and threads.
Prominent scholars recognize the decisive American role in Occidentalism; they try to highlight the U.S.
position in introducing and presenting itself as the representative of Occidental world.
In order to investigate all this and probe its characteristics, the paper is going to start with some pioneers who articulate and indicate to this American Occidental phenomenon.
Edward Said, Avram Noam Chomsky and others are going to be read accordingly.
