Economic Liberation Of Africa: Philosophy, Political Economy and Development Praxis

This book explores one of the most urgent questions of the twenty-first century: why Africa remains economically constrained despite its immense human and natural resources, and how a new philosophy of development rooted in African intellectual traditions can create pathways toward genuine liberation. The chapters assembled here draw from interdisciplinary scholarship spanning political economy, development theory, African philosophy, and post-colonial analysis. The central argument of the book is that Africa's developmental challenges cannot be solved by aid dependency, electoral rituals alone, or externally imposed policy frameworks. Rather, sustainable economic transformation requires a combination of institutional reform, epistemic decolonization, ethical leadership, and a new development paradigm grounded in African communal values such as Ubuntu.
