Bandherausgeber:in:
What are the benefits and risks for Africaâs participation in the globalisation nexus? Remapping Africa in the Global Space is a visionary and interdisciplinary volume that restores Africaâs image using a multidisciplinary lens. It incorporates disciplines such as sociology, education, global studies, economics, development studies, political science and philosophy to explore and theorise Africaâs reality in the global space and to deconstruct the misperceptions and narratives that often infantilise Africaâs internal and international relations. The contributions to this volume are a hybrid of both âoutsiderâ and âinsiderâ perspectives that create a balanced critical discourse that can provide âstandardâ paradigms that can adequately explain, predict, or prevent Africaâs current misperceptions and myths about the African âcrisisâ and âfailureâstatus. The authors provide a holistic, and perhaps, anticolonial and anti-hegemonic perspective that can benefit a wide spectrum of academics, scholars, students, development agents, policy makers in both governmental and non-governmental organisations and engage some alternative analyses and possibilities for socio-politico and economic advancement in Africa. The book provides up-to-date scholarly research on continental trends on various subjects and concerns of paramount importance to globalisation and development in Africa.
