Across its three main divisions?Speculations, Reflections, and Interventions?the volume constructs a complex mirror, in which our age might be able to recognize itself with all its imperfections, shadowy spots, even threatening abysses and latent promises. On the cutting edge of philosophy, political and literary theory, and aesthetics, this book courageously tackles a wide array of topics, including climate change, the role of technology, reproductive rights, the problem of refugees, the task of the university, political extremism, embodiment, utopia, food ethics, and sexual identity. It is an enduring record of an ongoing conversation, as well as a building block for any attempt to make sense of our world?s multifaceted realities.

Between colonialism and radical nationalism: middlemen in the era of decolonization, c. 1941-c. 1960. 330 $aThe Duala people entered the international scene as merchant-brokers for precolonial trade in ivory, slaves and palm products. Under colonial rule they used the advantages gained from earlier riverain trade to develop cocoa plantations and provide their children with exceptional levels of European education. At the same time they came into early conflict with both German and French regimes and played a leading - if ultimately unsuccessful - role in anti-colonial politics. In tracing these changing economic and political roles, this book also examines the growing consciousness of the Duala as an ethnic group and uses their history to shed light on the history of 'middleman' communities in surrounding regions of West and Central Africa. The authors draw upon a wide range of written and oral sources, including indigenous accounts of the past conflicting with their own findings but illuminate local conceptions of social hierarchy and their relationship to spiritual beliefs. 410 0$aAfrican studies series ;$v96. 606 $aDuala (African people)$xHistory 607 $aCameroon$xHistory$yTo 1960 607 $aCameroon$xEconomic conditions$yTo 1960 615 0$aDuala (African people)$xHistory. 676 $a967.11/004963962 700 $aAusten$b Ralph A.$0658322 702 $aDerrick$b Jonathan 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783313403321 996 $aMiddlemen of the Cameroons Rivers$93678637 997 $aUNINA
