ethnophile

plural ethnophiles

1. A person who exhibits an unusual obsession with ethnicity or race.

   I would suggest that the narrative sets up an opposition between what is portrayed as a majority of racist Europeans uncritical of the flaws of their own civilization and the ethnophile Max who is highly aware of the shortcomings of Western societies.
