The text considers what this veritable direction to knowledge production would mean to other areas of concern in African philosophy such as morality, education and the environment. These contributions are important because the success of decolonising projects in African countries depend upon the methods that underpin envisioned liberative knowledge production in light of Africas historical and present condition. This volume appeals to students and researchers working in epistemology and African philosophy. 001449662 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001449662 650_0 $$aKnowledge, Theory of$$zAfrica. 001449662 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001449662 7001_ $$aMasaka, Dennis,$$eeditor.$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000367230348 001449662 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tKnowledge production and the search for epistemic liberation in Africa.$$dCham : Springer, 2022$$z9783031079641$$w(OCoLC)1338676281 001449662 852__ $$bebk 001449662 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-07965-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001449662 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1449662$$pGLOBAL_SET 001449662 980__ $$aBIB 001449662 980__ $$aEBOOK 001449662 982__ $$aEbook 001449662 983__ $$aOnline 001449662 994__ $$a92$$bISE
