Representation of the "other" in Hollywood cinema after September 11, 2001
This article is an attempt to analyze the representation of the "other" in Hollywood cinema after the terrorist attacks of 9/11. With the terrorist attacks of 9/11, Hollywood cinema also became a theater for countering terrorism/ war on trror. The conflict is itself part of Hollywood's confrontation with the "other" or "enemy" in the history of Hollywood cinema, based on the United States' confrontation with its enemies in three historical periods: Cold War, Cold War, and Post-Cold War. With the rise of the US "counter-terrorism" or "war on terror" discourse in the aftermath of 9/11, Hollywood also represented the "other" in that discourse. In this article, the authors analyze the representation of the "other" in Hollywood cinema during this period. To do this, they used another definition by Levinas and a methodology of discourse analysis. This article shows that Hollywood cinema has portrayed Islamic fundamentalism as the "other" or "enemy" of the United States / Western civilization in the post-9/11 historical discourse.
