Tuesday | 01:00 PM | Security community vs. Global South—Taiwan’s coloniality SHIH Chih-yu The former colonizers had already decided not to resort to waging wars between themselves when engaging in colonial conquest and exploitation. Instead, they crafted and subscribed to rules-based order. However, organizations of former colonies remind Europe of the unrestrained Westphalian states, the Axis states in particular, that existed before WWII. This realization and its concomitant remedy in terms of rules-based order is self-defeating to the extent that they together distract attention away from the double causes of the governmental incapacity in the Global South networking; namely, the legacies of the past colonialism and perpetuation of colonial relations following the nominal decolonization. Consequently, the de facto alliance of colonizers of the Western security community inflicts a kind of epistemicide on the former colonies that is simultaneously the self-epistemicide of Europe that seeks to forget and forgive colonialism.
