Provincializing definition

Provincializing the West means abandoning its claim to being the standard-bearer of universal values, preventing the term “province” from being identified as a “backward” place and giving it a new meaning as a respected unit of the world, and accepting diversity, multi-polar ity, and sovereignty in a world of mutual recognition and solidarity, not a world dominated by a single core or hegemon.
