Why do liberals assume the victory of the lefty-western way is inevitable?
Do you think the rising powers of China and India will adopt Western feminism, NAM immigration, egalitarianism, or "humanitarian interventionism?" After seeing what it has made our society into?

India is way too overpopulated to be a superpower.

Yes, there is a global shift towards all the values you mentioned. I don't think they will exactly adopt the values by the book. But there is evidence to show that rising powers tend to adopt the qualities of existing powers. India for one has most of the laws already present in western countries. But the sad fact is that their are humongous gaps between cultural realities and legislatures in India. There are many statutes which are pro women, NOT anti-gay, pro humanism, secular and pro freedom. But the truth is that they are seldom practiced. Hence you have prevalence of social evils such as discrimination, corruption, gender divide, etc.
So again, Yes for India. China has been distinctly different from most other rising powers. But even there calls for all the values you have mentioned are growing. No country is an island in today's media savvy world. People want the same freedoms anywhere. But again, i don't know how time will take its course. |
