内容
This book examines the underexplored notion of epistemic marginalisation of women by philosophy in the African intellectual place. Women's issues are still very much neglected by governments, corporate bodies and academics in the sub-Saharan Africa. The entrenched traditional world-views which privilege men over women make it difficult for the modern day challenges posed by the neglect of the feminine epistemic perspective to become obvious. Contributors address these issues from both theoretical and practical perspectives, demonstrating what philosophy could do to ameliorate the epistemic marginalization of women, as well as ways in which African philosphy exacerbates the marginalization. Philosophy is supposed to teach us how to lead the good life in all ramifications, why is it failing in this duty in Africa where the issue of women's epistemic vision is concerned? The chapters raises feminist agitations to a new level; beginning from the regular campaigns on various women's rights and reaching a climax in an epistemic struggle in which the knowledge-controlling power to create, acquire, evaluate, regulate and disseminate is hoisted as the last frontier of feminism.
