Book Synopsis Reason in History by : Babacar Camara
Download or read book Reason in History written by Babacar Camara and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reason in History provides theoretical clarity and conceptual analysis that is well a propos, considering the potential and actual societal changes we are witnessing. Has there ever been or can there be a structural change that would thereby reveal an internal dynamic in African societies? For us, the elements determining the forms and law of social changes are less interesting than the possibility of change itself. Is change universal of just a property of a certain type of social totality? Hegel's theories seem to do Africa justice or simply match the true reality of traditional African societies. Africa is not and has never been static. The book also fosters a greater appreciation of the grandeur and complexity of Hegel's dialectic: he is still judging our world despite what postmodernist scholars and ethnophilosophers think.

Book Synopsis Crossing the Line in Africa by : Ambe Ngwa
Download or read book Crossing the Line in Africa written by Ambe Ngwa and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2019-01-07 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores a collective understanding of the perception and treatment of borders in Africa. The notion of boundary is universal as boundaries are also an important part of human social organization. Through the ages, boundaries have remained the container by which national space is delineated and contained. For as long as there has been human society based on territoriality and space, there have been boundaries. With their dual character of exclusivism and inclusivism, states have proven to adopt a more structural approach to the respect of the former in consciousness of the esteem of international law governing sovereignty and territorial integrity. However, frontier peoples and their realities have often opted for the latter situation, imposing a more functionalist perception of these imaginary lines and prompting a border opinion shift to a more blurring form of representation and meaning in most African communities. This collective multidisciplinary effort of understanding how tangible and intangible borders have influenced Africas attitude and existence for ages is worthy in its own rights. The difference between what borders are and what they are not to a people is the mere product of their own estimations and practices, a disposition that leads the contributors to this book to study borders beyond states or nations and how borders are crossed or transferred from one point to the other for the convenience of their histories and being.
Book Synopsis Paix, violence et démocratie en Afrique by : Réseau Afrique, philosophie et démocratie
Download or read book Paix, violence et démocratie en Afrique written by Réseau Afrique, philosophie et démocratie and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2003 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les textes rassemblés ici disent clairement ou de manière voilée, que les vrais problèmes de l'Afrique se trouvent en nous-mêmes. Comment retrouver la dignité chaque jour perdue quand la société et l'Etat tiennent si peu compte de l'existence de "droits humains"? Car il faut pouvoir bénéficier du droit à la vie et à la parole, ce qui n'est pas chose évidente en Afrique. La "culture de la paix" a beau être un projet louable, aucune paix ne peut être cultivée en dehors du strict respect du droit de vivre, de parler et de penser, du droit d'habiter en humain quelque part dans le monde. (Tanella Boni).
Download or read book Regional Integration in Africa written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-04-06 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Regional Integration in Africa: What Role for South Africa, Henri Bah, Siphamandla Zondi and André Mbata Mangu reflect on African integration and the contribution of post-Apartheid South Africa. From their different scientific backgrounds, they demonstrate that despite some progress made under the African Union that superseded the Organisation of African Unity, Africa is still lagging behind in terms of regional integration and South Africa, which benefitted from the rest of the continent in her struggle against apartheid, has not as yet played a major role in this process. Apart from contributing to advancing knowledge, the book is a recommended read for all those interested in African regional integration and the relationships between Africa and post-Apartheid South Africa. Contributors are Henri Bah, André Mbata Mangu and Siphamandla Zondi. Foreword by Eddy Maloka.

Book Synopsis Arguing Comparative Politics by : Alfred Stepan
Download or read book Arguing Comparative Politics written by Alfred Stepan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-06-14 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together new and classic articles by one of the leading scholars in comparative politics. The articles focus in particular on the nature of contemporary democracy and its prospects. The volume begins with a personal analysis of the intellectual, and often political, reasons why and how Stepan chose to engage in certain critical arguments over the last thirty years. The volume is then divided into three sections, each with a distinctive theme: state and society; constructing polities; and varieties of democracies. The introduction and articles ask whether, both for intellectual and political reasons, there are strong grounds for questioning both Rawls and Huntington on religion and democracy, Riker on federalism, and Gellner on multinationalism. The volume contains articles on civil society, political society, economic society, the military, and a usable state. The possibility of multiple and complementary political identities is argued for. The incentive systems and political practices of the three macro-constitutional frameworks for democratic government— parliamentarianism, presidentialism, and semi-presidentialism— are compared and contrasted.

Book Synopsis Epistemologies of the South by : Boaventura de Sousa Santos
Download or read book Epistemologies of the South written by Boaventura de Sousa Santos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the concept of 'cognitive injustice': the failure to recognise the different ways of knowing by which people across the globe run their lives and provide meaning to their existence. Boaventura de Sousa Santos shows why global social justice is not possible without global cognitive justice. Santos argues that Western domination has profoundly marginalised knowledge and wisdom that had been in existence in the global South. She contends that today it is imperative to recover and valorize the epistemological diversity of the world. Epistemologies of the South outlines a new kind of bottom-up cosmopolitanism, in which conviviality, solidarity and life triumph against the logic of market-ridden greed and individualism.

Book Synopsis Historicité et rationalité de la démocratie africaine by : Charles-Robert Dimi
Download or read book Historicité et rationalité de la démocratie africaine written by Charles-Robert Dimi and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2007 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'instauration de la démocratie en Afrique correspond au développement d'une pensée nouvelle qui s'articule autour de la mondialisation. Elle a une raison historiquement déterminée, et par conséquent, elle n'est pas une génération spontanée: elle s'est élaborée lentement à l'occasion de l'extension de la civilisation occientale, c'est-à-dire la colonisation. Toute son histoire met en jeu la complexité de l'identité et de l'altérité: la structure sociale africaine continue de se repérer sur un axe orthogonal, distinct de celui de la structure capitaliste.
