Essays in the Contemporary Thoughts of Afrikology
The epistemic Eurocentric boarders, expand towards the global
south, they dehumanise and obliterate existing forms of thinking through
colonialism and coloniality. In doing so, the global south has lost the
sense of being self, Africans have become non-thinking objects. This
has led to a series of ceaseless conflicts, poor leadership, and
developmental crisis and provides fertile ground for Eurocentric
superiority. This book Phenomenology of Decolonizing the University: Essays in the Contemporary Thoughts of Afrikology
is a diagnosis of the problems of the mind in the global south and
provides solutions in the decolonisatiom of the mind such as humanising
the university, the rewriting of African stories and facilitates an
epistemic rebellion.
