African Thought in Comparative Perspective showcases how adept Ali Mazrui, the most prolific writer on Africa
today, is at using complex conceptual apparatuses to categorize and synthesize Africa s political and social
thought. This book, thus, offers an original interpretation of the knowledge that has been accumulated over the
years, and which is of timeless relevance. It covers such themes as the legacy of the African liberation movements,
the convergence and divergence of African, Islamic and Western thought, nationalist jdeologies in Africa, the role
of religion in African politics, and the impact of Ancient Greek philosophy on contemporary Africa.
“In this colledion of 26 of his most important essays, Ali Mazrui probes critical issues in postcolonial Africa. He deftly
segues from development to identity, the black diaspora, religion, racism, intermarriage, sexual tolerance and
intolerance, and more. The unifying themes in this volume are political ideas and culture.
Spanning five decades, Mazrui s work offers a prism on the unfolding African studies. His views have dazzled the
academic world, ignited controversy, and always excited audiences.
“Composed with flair and imagination, these reflections on Global Africa dig beneath surface impressions to show
interconnections among cultures and to cut against received wisdom about the continent. Mazrui s remarkable range
takes in the broad sweep of his personal experience, a deep knowledge of Western and Eastern literature, and
documentary research to sustain provocative arguments. Headers will find that this book provides intellectual gems.
