Cultural Privileges and Responsibilities

The current western culture is considered more advanced and civilized. One major factor is mass education and tolerance for opposite opinions.
When western intellectuals talk about other cultures and nations, they emphasize the two points. When a culture is considered superior, then there is also a need for the other cultures to embrace the values of the superior culture.
Western politicians and intellectuals are talking to spread the good values of western culture all over the world. It was the Bush Senior New World Order, export of democracy by Bush Junior, defeating evils of communism and the current war on terror: all are the spread of good values of western culture.

In the mean times, Western politicians and intellectuals ignore a few thing:

• With privilege comes responsibilities.Any wrong step on Western side reduces good perception of the their cultural values.
• Wrong decisions of current politicians and good decisions of past politicians in West points to the decline of the good values in western culture itself with time.
• Most of the time, Western countries sacrifice the good western values on their national economic and political interests. This leads to the perception that western cultural values can't pragmatically guide a country in their political and foreign policies.
• The above point also tell the world that Western nations usually don't care much about the good Western values when it comes to political and economic interests.
• One can also say from the previous points that the Western cultural values are in danger not from competition from other cultures but from the policies of West itself.
