Quote by James Buchan
The world dominion of western thought, forms of organisation, technology and military force is not God-given, nor eternal, nor greatly appreciated by the rest of the world.
Summary
This quote highlights that the global dominance of Western ideologies, systems of governance, technology, and military power is not something that is inherently bestowed by a divine force, nor is it eternal or universally admired. The speaker suggests that this dominance is a product of historical circumstances and does not necessarily merit universal praise or acceptance from the rest of the world. It implies a need for a critical examination of Western dominance and the recognition of diverse perspectives and alternative ways of thinking.
