2		-====The standard is resisting orientalism. The Orient is as a geopolitical construct, deeply engrained in Western language, culture, politics, ethics, and ontology. It creates a totalizing East and West, where the East is defined as merely other than the West. A critical centering of Orientalism is an epistemic prerequisite to discussion of global politics, and so is necessitated by the resolution's question of what is ethical for 'countries'. Said:====

26		-====After the Cold War, the Non-Proliferation Treaty divided the world into five Nuclear Weapons States (NWS) and (now) 186 Non Nuclear Weapons States (NNWS), in order to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons, promote the peaceful use of nuclear power, and move towards global disarmament.^^ ^^ But, it didn't really work out like that. The goal of the NPT was to create an equal playing field, but instead the vague and uneven enforcement of the NPT enables the expansion of western hegemony at the expense of eastern and third world interests. Since the indefinite extension of the NPT in 1995, NNWS have continued to fight for concrete movement towards disarmament^^ ^^, and NWS, especially the US, have continued to spend billions upgrading their nuclear weapons^^ ^^ and shifting the focus back to non-proliferation, while at the same time finding loopholes in the NPT to allow them to proliferate nuclear weapons to NATO allies^^ ^^. It is understandable to designate states that already have nuclear weapons so they could move towards disarmament. But instead, the NWS/NNWS divide has created a worldview at the heart of this disproportionate enforcement and a new age of nuclear orientalism. Gusterson 1:====
