Dear ALL:
I am very pleased to announce the publication of a new volume: The Palgrave Handbook of African Philosophy.
This handbook investigates the current state and future possibilities of African Philosophy, as a discipline and as a practice, vis-à-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.
- Allows new and established scholars of African Philosophy to re-engage their own and other philosophers' ideas, arguments, and thoughts about Africa and her predicament in a global world where issues of knowledge, technologies, sexuality, hybridity, gender, neoliberalism, and terrorism have become major intellectual staples;
- Provides researchers, students and teachers of African Philosophy with a handy volume about the past, current states, and future possibilities of the discipline;
- Represents a comprehensive handbook in a field that has not had such a volume for many years
