Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'Afrique au XXe siècle 1960-1985 : vingt-cinq ans d'indépendance en Afrique. Mais aussi plus de cinquante coups d'État, quelques centaines de crimes, exécutions et meurtres politiques. À l'arrière-plan de ces drames, la stagnation des conditions d'existence des populations et la rivalité impitoyable des grandes puissances. Décidément, l'Afrique est loin d'avoir trouvé son rythme de croisière. Contrairement aux idées reçues, cette instabilité et ces tensions ne datent pas d'hier. On peut en suivre les jalons depuis le début de notre siècle. Ce livre clair et concis ne retient du passé que les faits nécessaires à la compréhension de l'Afrique actuelle. Il éclaire l'évolution politique du continent en relation avec les mutations économiques et sociales. L'étude des États et des grandes zones géo politiques est complétée par une réflexion d'ensemble sur les héritages culturels et politiques, l'État et le pouvoir, la quête de l'unité et d'une personnalité propre, les interférences des puissances extérieures.

Download or read book African Theology written by Emmanuel Martey and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two major strands of theology have developed in Africa--inculturation and liberation--each in response to different needs. Emmanuel Martey's African Theology provides a clear, scholarly examination of these two basic approaches, solidly based on Martey's understanding of contemporary theology and his firsthand knowledge of Africa.Martey first examines the historical background of each of these theological developments, especially relating to cultural and political movements enveloping the continent in the 1970s. In sub-Saharan Africa, struggles for independence from colonizers have resulted in inculturation theology. The defining aspect of this theology is that it pushes its roots firmly in African culture and traditions. In South Africa, on the other hand, Black Africans struggling against the oppressive systems of apartheid have turned to liberation theology.Martey shows how the real hope for African theology lies in the dialectical encounter between these two approaches and in their potential for convergence. "The two foci (of liberation and inculturation)," Martey says, "are not contradictory, but complement each other." African Theology concludes by challenging African theologians to weld together the praxis of inculturation with that of liberation, in order to achieve an integrative vision for the continent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hountondji contends that ideological manifestations of this view that stress the uniqueness of the African experience are protonationalist reactions against colonialism conducted, paradoxically, in the terms of colonialist discourse. Hountondji argues that a genuine African philosophy must assimilate and transcend the theoretical heritage of Western philosophy and must reflect a rigorous process of independent scientific inquiry.

Book excerpt: Divided into eight sections, each with introductory essays, the selections offer rich and detailed insights into a diverse multinational philosophical landscape. Revealed in this pathbreaking work is the way in which traditional philosophical issues related to ethics, metaphysics, and epistemology, for instance, take on specific forms in Africa's postcolonial struggles. Much of its moral, political, and social philosophy is concerned with the turbulent processes of embracing modern identities while protecting ancient cultures.

Book excerpt: African philosophy under the specific conditions of a colonial and postcolonial world is – at least since the 20th century if not even earlier – inherently intercultural.

This volume is the first publication that explicitly discusses African philosophy as a challenge to the project of intercultural philosophy.

Download or read book An Introduction to African Philosophy written by Sam O. Imbo and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 1998-03-26 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organized topically rather than historically, this book provides an excellent introduction to the subject of African Philosophy. Samuel Oluoch Imbo synthesizes the ideas of key African philosophers into an accessible narrative. The author focuses on five central questions: What are the definitions of African philosophy? Is ethno-philosophy really philosophy? What are the dangers of an African philosophy that claims to be 'unique'? Can African philosophy be done in foreign languages such as English and French? Are there useful ways to make connections between African philosophy, African American philosophy, and women's studies? By making cross-disciplinary and transnational connections, Imbo stakes out an important place for African philosophy. Imbo's book is an invaluable introduction to this dynamic and growing area of study.
