Philosophy of African Emergence and Renaissance

By Didier Ngalebaye

Wanting to contribute to the debate on postcolonial African emergence and renaissance, and using the method of prospectivist hermeneutics, the author denounces the generalized importation of models of governance (1), questions the code of emergence of pharaonic Egypt (2), the thinking gesture by which the ancient Greek students returned home and disseminated and developed the acquired knowledge (3), the causes of the loss of this historical status by Egypt (4) and the dogmas of Western academism (5). From there, and aiming at the construction of a concept of Universal a posteriori, he implements the epistemo-ethics as a mode of prospective evaluation of the ante-colonial African tradition, by crossing it with the post-colonial reality, in order to release an original and dynamic synthesis, by which Africa can re-emerge and re-birth in the new globalized world, in a measure which aims at Development, of which Happiness is the goal, as a way, and not as a destination anymore. He concludes that the deep decolonization of the African understanding is the condition of the African re-emergence and re-birth for the Development.
