在谈论阿拉伯世界的问题,很多后殖民主义理论是必须要提及的。其中最具有代表性的是阿拉伯世界因为英法美殖民者的影响而在近现代产生的自我认同、国家认同危机。阿拉伯世界的国家分裂毫无疑问是后殖民主义问题,是西方世界必须要承认的历史罪责。任何对于阿拉伯世界unity这个概念的质疑,实际上都是在为殖民主义进行脱罪。感兴趣可看Kumaraswamy的一篇谈论阿拉伯国家identity formation的论文的节选:Thee problems of national identity in the Middle East are a consequence of the orientalist indifference of the European empires when they demarcated the political borders of their colonies, which ignored the local history and the geographic and tribal boundaries observed by the natives, in the course of establishing the Western version of the Middle East. ….More than three-quarters of a century after the disintegration of the Ottoman Empire from which most of them emerged, these states have been unable to define, project, and maintain a national identity that is both inclusive and representative. None of the countries of the Middle East is homogeneous; they consist of numerous ethnic, religious, cultural, and linguistic minorities. Yet they have not succeeded in evolving a national identity that reflects their heterogeneity. ….While borrowing the European (though gradually weakening) model of territory-based national identity, the Middle Eastern countries have been unable to build a "nation. " In other parthe world, nations, both old and new, have become states; the process has beenreversed in the Middle East where states are still in search of a nation. Instead they have tried numerous others means to circumvent the problem of national identity.— WHO AM I?: THE IDENTITY CRISIS IN THE MIDDLE EASTO网页链接
