To do so, it employs two strategies. In the first instance, it considers African theories of human dignity: (1) vitality; (2) community; (3) Personhood. Secondly, it explores the plausibility of these theories by applying them to select applied ethics themes, specifically: animal ethics, disability ethics and euthanasia. The aim of this book is not to argue for the plausibility of these African theories, but to familiarize the global audience of philosophy, ethics and related disciplines (legal studies, sociology, bioethics and so on) with a neglected African perspective on this vital concept. The books is aimed at scholars of philosophy interested in non-European and specifically African perspective. 001444873 588__ $$aDescription based upon print version of record. 001444873 650_0 $$aPhilosophy, African. 001444873 650_0 $$aDignity$$xPhilosophy. 001444873 650_6 $$aPhilosophie africaine. 001444873 650_6 $$aDignité$$xPhilosophie. 001444873 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001444873 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMolefe, Motsamai$$tHuman Dignity in African Philosophy$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022$$z9783030932169 001444873 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in philosophy. 001444873 852__ $$bebk 001444873 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-93217-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001444873 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1444873$$pGLOBAL_SET 001444873 980__ $$aBIB 001444873 980__ $$aEBOOK 001444873 982__ $$aEbook 001444873 983__ $$aOnline 001444873 994__ $$a92$$bISE
