Pascah Mungwini connects African philosophy and decolonial philosophy, treating African thought as having a unique identity, rooted in its place while having always been in dialogue with the world. He charts the controversies and contestations around the contemporary practice of philosophy as an academic enterprise in Africa, examining some of African philosophy's gravest mistakes, omissions, and failures. Covering the history of African philosophy's development and trajectory, Mungwini focuses on the struggle for intellectual liberation and reveals that true liberation begins by first understanding one's own world, an essential point for anyone beginning to explore another philosophical tradition on its own terms.
