- More about Sagacity in African Philosophy
This book explores African philosophic sagacity, with its emphasis on wisdom, critical reflection, conflict resolution, and communal relevance. Sagacity seeks not only to outline and discuss traditional African cultural values, but also to apply those values in rational and practical ways in order to build a new society. Besides demonstrating the importance of sagacity in philosophy, the book outlines and discusses how it can be applied to pressing social and cultural issues across Africa. These include education, climate ethics, the institution of “widow” guardianship, and the naming system among the Luo ethnic group of Kenya. This is a robust and practical guide to African philosophic sagacity, as well as a passionate argument for its widespread adoption. It is a vital new contribution to an underappreciated field of thought in contemporary Africa.
