Postcolonial African Philosophy de Eze

Postcolonial African Philosophy

Autor Eze
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 ian 1997
Postcolonial African Philosophy sets out a timely and critical agenda for contemporary African, Afro-Caribbean, and African American philosophy. With many leading contributors, this collection of newly-commissioned work provides key coverage of the postcolonial and the postmodern, the critique of eurocentrism in philosophy, philosophy in post-independence Africa and post-civil rights black America, multi-culturalism, and inter-cultural dialogue between contemporary African and western philosophy in the academy. In addition, it includes important interventions on contemporary historical, political, and cultural situations of Africa and America at the end of the twentieth century, and philosophy's role in this milieu.
Designed to complement Emmanuel Eze's forthcoming Race and the Enlightenment (1996) and African Philosophy: An Anthology, (1997) also published by Blackwell, these volumes represent powerful new intervention in a fast developing area of study and research.
