It focuses on how the ethical thoughts of Africans are forged within the context of everyday life, and how in turn ethical and philosophical thoughts inform day-to-day living. The essays frame ethics as a historical phenomenon best examined as a historical movement, the dynamic ethos of a people, rather than as a theoretical construct. It thereby offers a bold, incisive, and fresh interpretation of Africa's ethical life and thought. 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern 606 $aEthnology$zAfrica 606 $aCulture 606 $aAfrica$xHistory 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aAfrican literature 606 $aPhilosophical Traditions 606 $aAfrican Culture 606 $aAfrican History 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aAfrican Literature 615 0$aPhilosophy, Modern. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aAfrica$xHistory. 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aAfrican literature. 615 14$aPhilosophical Traditions. 615 24$aAfrican Culture. 615 24$aAfrican History. 615 24$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aAfrican Literature. 676 $a338.96 676 $a960 702 $aWariboko$b Nimi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFalola$b Toyin$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910390858403321 996 $aThe Palgrave Handbook of African Social Ethics$92223550 997 $aUNINA
