Arguing that African ethics is integral to African post-colonial political contentious discourse, Murove invites the reader to reflect on various problematic political issues in post-colonial Africa and how African ethics has been applied in these situations. Starting with a succinct discussion of the scope of African ethics, he discusses how African ethical values have been applied by post-colonial politicians in the reconstruction of their societies. Further, Murove looks critically at the issue of African poverty and how the ethic of regional integration and economic cooperation among post-colonial African nation-states has been instrumental to efforts aimed at overcoming the scourge of poverty. The main question this book seeks to answer is: Are African traditional ethical values a panacea to modern African political problems? 606 $aPhilosophy, African 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aEthics 606 $aAfrica$xReligion 606 $aAfrican Philosophy 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics 606 $aAfrican Religions 615 0$aPhilosophy, African. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aAfrica$xReligion. 615 14$aAfrican Philosophy. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics. 615 24$aAfrican Religions. 676 $a364.1323096 676 $a100 700 $aMurove$b Munyaradzi Felix$0977652 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863188703321 996 $aAfrican Politics and Ethics$94166785 997 $aUNINA
