Understanding Paradigmatic Influences: The Political Concept of Institutionalized Eurocentrism, the Historic Presidency of Barack Obama, and the Methodological Approach of Interdisciplinary Computational Large Scale Text Mining

Conceptually, political eurocentrism is the subliminal, intellectual consciousness manifestation embedded within the organic infrastructure of political institutions, political cultures, and political economies of nation-states whose geopolitical origins characterize the accepted paradigms of imperialistic, Anglo-Saxon dominant worldview values and perspectives. These accepted interdisciplinary paradigms are inclusive of the ethos; political myths and distortions; rituals and traditions; and institutions which tend to favor the vested interests of one supremacy relative to others in the exploitative relational political scheme, which shape the realities of power, governance, and the mobilization of bias by its leaders. Moreover, all nation-states along with its status quo leaders strategically implement under intellectual advisement the necessary accepted paradigms and structures for political dominance domestically and globally. Accordingly, the institutionalization of science for governmental purposes becomes paramount for the construction. This integral process depicts a movement, which commences with the collaborative engagement of the scientific intellectual community with government and its cumulative published works’ promulgation inclusive of educational curriculum development. Therefore, political eurocentrism, the movement commenced with the collaborative factual engagement of the European intellectual community who postulate the theoretical framework and methodology for the manifestation of qualitative narratives, quantitative interpretative criteria, definitive strategies for analysis, and implementation techniques for pre-designated conclusive results. Importantly, the universality of instruments produced by the movement along with its manifestations significantly transforms the political socio-economic dimensions of nation-states. For instance, Enlightenment political thinkers, such as Immanuel Kant, Benjamin Franklin and American presidents, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Woodrow Wilson were unequivocally, instrumental in the political eurocentrism movement during their epoch and were fundamentally responsible for its conceptual timeless attributes. Further, the universal political structuralism of eurocentrism transcends time and most importantly, the ebb and flow of dynamic continuous political events further articulate its ideology within the Twenty-first century paradigm. This interdisciplinary research initiative, inclusive of an innovative, computational text-mining paradigm will further probe the phenomenon of institutionalized political eurocentrism and its impact on the American presidency when engaging in the political contextual analysis of foreign and domestic policy-making during the Obama presidency. This tripartite methodological approach, specifically designed for the Obama presidency dataset and its unique legacy for comparative political analysis depicts a quantitative Computational Text-Mining Paradigm, which demonstrates empirical relationships between variables and textual conceptualizations; an Obama presidency exclusive qualitative Case Study Model; and an integral Theoretical Statistical Analysis. Moreover, this methodological approach will promulgate the macro-national and cross-national aspects of political eurocentrism from the utilization of large-scale document datasets pertaining to the American presidency with the strictest of scrutiny for foreign and domestic policy engagement of American Presidents with comparative linkages between President Obama and other American presidents. Importantly, it will allow political scientists to test more efficiently static paradigms to determine their clarity in understanding political phenomena.
