This volume is a collection of chapters on contemporary issues within African philosophy. They are issues African philosophy must grapple with in order to demonstrate its readiness to make a stand against some of the challenges society faces in the coming decade. Examples of such issues are xenophobia, Afro-phobia, extreme poverty, democratic failure and migration. This text covers new methodical directions and there is focus on the conversationalist, complementarist and consolationist movements within the field as well as the place of Local and Indigenous Knowledge Systems (LINKS). The collection speaks to African philosophy’s place in intellectual history with coverage of African Ethics and African socio-political philosophy. Contributors come from a variety of backgrounds, institutions and countries. Through their innovative ideas, they provide fresh insight and intellectual energy. The book appeals to students and researchers in philosophy and African studies.
