dc.description.abstract | More recent discussions in African philosophy have focused on substantive issues than the largely meta-philosophical discussions that African philosophers engaged in between the 1960s and 1990s. This makes this special issue very important. Collectively the articles in the issue, among others, explore contemporary topics in African philosophy and studies in the area of the political philosophy of need, oral tradition in philosophy, majoritarian democracy and decolonisation, biomedical and relational conceptions of the body, an identity-driven approach to African studies, Plato’s crucible and contemporary African understandings of leadership and the metaphysical underpinnings in existing discourses on disability in Africa. | en_US |
