Özet:

 

The Occidental Studies Unit at the King Faisal Center for Islamic  Studies, Saudi Arabia is an indication of the interest of the Arab-Islamic  World in “Occidentalism”. But what is Occidentalism? Does it really  exist  as a phenomenon that is opposed to Orientalism ? And how do  Arab literary and non-literary writers view the West? In this article, I  begin by exploring different views of Arab and western thinkers towards  the existence of the phenomenon of “Occidentalism” or “orientalism in  reverse”  the dehumanized representation of the west , in an attempt to  find a partial answer to the question some American intellectuals have  been asking since 11 September 2001: why do they hate us?.
