  • Imploding the myth of progress and women's emancipation in The new world order as a critique of US-led economic imperialism
    Burcar, Lilijana
    he New World Order by Harold Pinter is a short drama piece that unmasks Western humanitarianism and shows it to be one of major decoys in justifying Western military and economic incursions into the ... countries of the Global South. The drama problematizes and implodes the rhetoric of Western countries as harbingers of economic progress and exporters of women's human rights. It points to the real situation women and men experience under direct or indirect Western-led occupations, be it military and/or economic, showing that they are also inevitably premised on the importation and spread of gendered hierarchies inherent to Western capitalist patriarchies. As such, the play serves as an eerie reminder of the gendered constructs Western corporations churn out and attitudes they implant among the rest of us in order to cover up and naturalize their exploitation of women workers in the Global South.
