on terms

The hierarchy of China experts is this: At the top we find the philosophers and statesmen who set the stage and agenda for the universal ideology - exclusively serving Western interests. They always reside in the West, know little or nothing about China, and discuss China solely ON WESTERN TERMS. In the past there were the likes of Kant, Hegel, and Wilhelm II; today we have Henry "on China" Kissinger, Francis "End of History" Fukuyama, and Samuel "Clash of Civilizations" Huntington.

Could you tell me what this phrase means in the paragraph? On terminologies of Western? Or from the perspective of Western?
