This book examines these ideas, which have given rise to the Africanist Perspective on the Motherland to place Africa at the center of all intellectual discourses pertaining to African people everywhere while at the same time challenging the pervasive and pernicious Eurocentric myth of African people being inactive agents in history. These contributions from a global range of scholars across disciplines examine the work of contemporary great Black thinkers as sources that can be employed to help in the construction of a new Africa. Each chapter examines how these thinkers conceptualized Africa in their works, with the main objective of delineating their conceptualizations to generate suggestions on how to rebuild the continent. 0aSocial sciencesxPhilosophy.960803 0aEmigration and immigration.958113 0aPhilosophy, African.97351514aSocial Theory.95805024aDiaspora Studies.96647224aAfrican Philosophy.9735171 aBangura, Abdul Karim.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt9828532 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303166276808iPrinted edition:z978303166278208iPrinted edition:z978303166279940uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-66277-5  aZDB-2-SLS  aZDB-2-SXS  c62714d62714
