From the rear cover
This handbook investigates the current state and future possibilities of African Philosophy, as a discipline and as a practice, vis--vis the challenge of African development and Africa's place in a globalized, neoliberal capitalist economy. The volume offers a comprehensive survey of the philosophical enterprise in Africa, especially with reference to current discourses, arguments and new issues--feminism and gender, terrorism and fundamentalism, sexuality, development, identity, pedagogy and multidisciplinarity, etc.--that are significant for understanding how Africa can resume its arrested march towards decolonization and liberation.
