A postcolonial theory of recognition: Honneth and Fanon on violence and mutual recognition.  aThis volume explores the role of violence generally but with specific reference to African concepts and themes, and the significance they have for social redress. The contributors interpret African concepts and themes to include accounts of violence, explicitly or implicitly construed from indigenous axiological resources like Ubuntu or personhood and from those works that are not African in origin but have become central in African moral, political and legal thought, such as Hannah Arendt’s On Violence and Walter Benjamin’s Critique of Violence. The volume contributes to moral philosophy, social philosophy, African philosophy, and political philosophy/theory. It situates itself within the Global South, specifically the African perspective, to explore, articulate, and defend (or even critique) African conceptions of violence. This volume also takes seriously the need to tap into the intellectual resource of the African and diasporic African episteme thru thinkers such as Steve Biko, Frantz Fanon and Reiland Rabaka. It appeals to students and researchers working in philosophy and related disciplines on violence in Africa and the postcolonial context. 0aPhilosophy. 0aPostcolonialism. 0aTerrorism. 0aPolitical violence. 0aPolitical sciencexPhilosophy.14aPostcolonial Philosophy.24aTerrorism and Political Violence.24aPolitical Philosophy.1 aSanni, John Sodiq.eeditor.0(orcid)0000-0003-4050-44921https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4050-44924edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aVillet, Charles Mathurin.eeditor.0(orcid)0000-0003-0602-17291https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0602-17294edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303155880108iPrinted edition:z978303155882508iPrinted edition:z978303155883240uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-55881-8
