Abstract

Expressions of Indigenous and Local Knowledge in Africa and its Diaspora is a book of critical discourses on Africa and the various configurations of its expression in folklore, literature, music, languages, and philosophy. The focus of the selected works is on the African continent in terms of its historical contexts and contemporary times. The preservation of the unique identity of African Indigenous and Local Knowledge is confronted by a number of challenges within the increasingly globalized and Westernized world. This collection of works is intended to stimulate and document ongoing scholarly discussion on the paradoxical dynamics of preserving this identity. Our sincere hope is that the following chapters will consequently enhance the relevance of African Indigenous and Local Knowledge. Significantly, the prominent term in the title of this collection, expressions, entails making known or manifestation. The papers in these collections are therefore written and selected to serve the purpose of making known some of the elements of indigenous and local knowledge as well as the practices that these elements necessitate both historically and contemporarily in the African situation. This book is our articulation of the representation of knowledge and values which are lodged in the diverse knowledge systems in Africa and which are constantly expressed in both local and global spaces.
