Summary
Any discussion on Orientalism in Chile must necessarily refer to Edward Said: his book, Orientalism, first published in English in 1978, provided a reflection on the way in which the West has represented the East. Engaging with Foucault’s notion of discourse and its potential to manage, and even invent, the “Orient,” Said stated that Orientalism was a Western strategy for dominating, restructuring, and asserting authority over the “Orient” (3).
