Spanish term or phrase: fuerte acento eurocéntrico

Hola!!! Estoy traduciendo información general sobre un congreso que se realizará en el área de Humanidades. El texto dice así:

"Provenimos de un pasado en el que las Humanidades fueron entendidas como Castellano/Literatura, Filosofía e Historia de la Cultura y el Arte, con fuerte acento eurocéntrico (blanco) y androcéntrico; vinculado a una educación memorística ajena a las inteligencias múltiples".

Necesito ayuda con el término "eurocéntrico". Les agradezco.
