Transcending Our Colonial Place

More about the book

Exploring the concept of emancipatory politics in Africa, the book examines its role as a "displaced exception" within both political theory and practice. It critiques how state subjectivities often reinforce existing social hierarchies. Drawing on Frantz Fanon's call to reject Eurocentric perspectives, it advocates for a reconnection with dialectical thought to foster innovation and progress. By emphasizing the need for new concepts and discoveries, the work seeks to inspire a transformative approach to political engagement in the African context.
