First Worldism—“the loss of the prerogative, only and always, to be the one who transgresses the sovereign boundaries of other states, but never to be in the position of having one’s own boundaries transgressed.”
—Judith Butler, J. (2009). ‘Violence, mourning, politics’, in Harding, J. and Pribram, D. eds., Emotions: A Cultural Studies Reader. London: Routledge, pp. 387–402.
