Kids: Africa in Childhood Poetry powerfully conveys the wishful thinking, imaginations, experiences and critical reflections of children as they grow up. The volume grapples with a wide range of topics, sensations, encounters, emotions, imaginations and vistas commonplace in the psyche of many children across different geographical and cultural spaces.

This is a comprehensive study and erudite description of the struggle of African Indigenous Knowledge Systems in an Age of Globalization, using in particular eighty-four childrens traditional games in south-eastern Zimbabwe.

ISBN: 9789956764631 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 572 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In view of the resilience of Africa’s underdevelopment, what do Africans make of their determined aspirations for development? The continent of Africa has constantly drawn global attention, most especially for both human and natural evils. Underdevelopment, it appears, is one of the most eminent threatening evils. It has plunged and promises to maintain the majority of Africa in abject poverty, insecurity, and vulnerability. What perpetuates the ghost and gory of underdevelopment in Africa, despite a proliferation of development rhetoric and initiatives? How do ordinary Africans...

Harnessing Cultural Capital for Sustainability. A Pan Africanist Perspective
ISBN: 9789956762507 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book argues that the basic component of any society's social security and sustainability is cultural capital and its ability to fully recognise diversity in knowledge production and advancement. However, with regard to African societies, since the dawn of racial slavery and colonialism, cultural capital - indigenous knowledge in particular - has iniquitously and acrimoniously suffered marginalisation and pejorative ragtags. Increasingly since the 1990s, cultural capital informed by African knowledge systems has taken central stage in discussions of sustainability and development. This is...

This is an eloquent, engaged and extremely well informed narrative of the environmental and natural resource conservation and management issues in Mozambique. While the topics in this volume are diverse, they are all explicitly designed to move beyond the routinized blame of natural resource mismanagement and environmental degradation on local communities, and to rethink ecosystem destruction, land degradation and natural resource over-exploitation in Africa and beyond. Never losing sight of the major causes of environment and resource mismanagement in Mozambique, the book advances the thesis...

Development Perspectives from the South: Troubling the Metrics of [Under-]development in Africa
ISBN: 9789956764976 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Not so long ago, The Economist described Africa as a hopeless continent. This damning description specifically referred to the development status of Africa. While the debate on the political and socio-economic under-]development of Africa had been raging on prior to the Economist's daring but controversial pronouncements, it intensified from thereon. Many concerned people from within the continent and elsewhere have reproved the proclamation but mainly in newspapers and the broadcast media. Not enough has been done by development scholars to critically reflect on the description... Not so long ago, The Economist described Africa as a hopeless continent.

Divining the Future of Africa. Healing the Wounds, Restoring Dignity and Fostering Development
ISBN: 9789956792283 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the relationship between Africa, the West and China. It notes that while Africa is a continent of diverse cultures, raw materials, human resource, indigenous knowledges, and above all the biggest recipient of foreign aid globally, it continues to lag behind all regions of the world in terms of socio-economic development. The book grapples with the important question on why this has been the case. It provides crucial critical insights on how Africas situation could be reversed and the tapestry of its socio-economic problems eased. The book draws a link between culture,...

Environmental Conservation through Ubuntu and Other Emerging Perspectives
ISBN: 9789956791293 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In spite of its surging popularity with scholars and environment conservation and management aid experts, scientific environmental epistemology does not seem to be the answer to the forestry and environmental problems that Africa is facing. Due to the lasting impacts of colonialism and therefore Western scientism on Africa, at the core of the conservation dilemma lies the conflict between scientific conservation epistemologies and 'local'/'indigenous' conservation epistemologies with the latter being the locals' potential workable solution to the environmental problems haunting the continent....

The poems in this collection dissect and cut across psychological and cultural spaces as the poet reflects on the profundity of his experiences and encounters. The thoughtful reflections provide a snapshot of what it means to live in a world of where difference and sameness are never to be taken for granted. Though written from Africa, the poems transcend the geographical, cultural and emotional landscapes that have inspired the poet's creative genius. The poems reflect a wide gamut of themes such as love, anomy, hope, megalomania, treachery, education, vigilance and other tussles of everyday...

Euthanasia, Ethics and Tradition: The 21st Century African Dilemma
ISBN: 9783843385640 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Writing on philosophical issues that directly affect human life is difficult, but possible. As such, this is a book on euthanasia. While acknowledging the contribution of African tradition and western scholars to the development of medical ethics as a discipline in both western and African universities and harboring no wishes to turn back the clock of this development to the past, the book critically focuses on the failures of African tradition and the western scholars to settle some medicine related issues like euthanasia. In Africa, the failure has resulted in what we shall call "the 21st...

Heritage Practices for Sustainability: Ethnographic Insights from the BaTonga Community Museum in Zimbabwe
ISBN: 9789956763078 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Zimbabwean history is rooted in ethnic and cultural identities, inequalities, and injustices which the post-colonial government has sought to address since national independence in 1980. Marginalisation of some ethnic groups has been one of the persistent problems in contemporary Zimbabwe. Of particular significance to this book is the marginalisation of the BaTonga people of north-western Zimbabwe - a marginalisation whose roots are right back to the colonial era. Post-colonial Zimbabwe's emphasis on cultural identity and confirmation has, however, prompted the establishment of community...

ISBN: 9789956791910 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The continent of Africa is richly endowed with diverse cultures, a body of indigenous knowledge and technologies. These bodies of knowledge and technologies that are indeed embodied in the diverse African cultures are as old as humankind. From time immemorial, they have been used to solve socio-economic, political, health, and environmental problems, and to respond to the development needs of Africans. Yet with the advent of colonialism and Western scientism, these African cultures, knowledges, and technologies have been despised and relegated to the periphery, to the detriment of the...
