Synopsis "The Idea of Africa (African Systems of Thought)"
... this is a remarkable book. It will occupy a significant place in the critical literature of African Studies." -International Journal of African Historical Studies To read Mudimbe is to walk through a museum of many exhibits in the company of an erudite companion who explains, with much learned commentary, what you are seeing."-American Anthropologist Mudimbe's sympathetic yet rigorous accounts of such diverse Africanist discourses as Herskovits's cultural relativism and contemporary Afrocentricity bring to the surface the underlying goals and contexts in which these were produced." -Ivan Karp A sequel to his highly acclaimed The Invention of Africa, this is V. Y. Mudimbe's exploration of how the "idea" of Africa was constructed by the Western world.
