Lessons on Indigenous African Philosophy

See all formats and editions

This book highlights the specificities of African systems of thought through a wide range of issues on the history, branches and problems that animate the philosophical debates among African authors.

The book uses the Competence-Based Approach to present lessons rooted in real-life situations in Africa.

Since the African philosophy courses of most academic institutions were conceived with a "colonial mindset", the book provides the theoretical framework for the "decolonization" of the African mindset and African philosophy course content in academic institutions.

The book also gives a precise and concise methodology for reading, understanding and critically analyzing passages in philosophy in general, and African philosophy in particular.

Hence, the book is useful to teachers, novice philosophers, undergraduate students, graduates who wish to specialize in African philosophy, and scholars who wish to comparatively analyse African thought systems and other systems of thought across the globe.
