Africa's Quest for a Philosophy of Decolonization by Messay Kebede PDF Summary

Book Description: This book discovers freedom in the colonial idea of African primitiveness. As human transcendence, freedom escapes the drawbacks of otherness, as defended by ethnophilosophy, while exposing the idiosyncratic inspiration of Eurocentric universalism.

The cultural condition of modernization emerges when the return to the past deploys the future.
