Against Decolonisation: Taking African Agency Seriously
Olufemi Taiwo

About the Book

This is a book whose time has come. Basing his arguments principally on philosophy and language, Táíwò demonstrates how “decolonisers” reject as inauthentically African the works of even the most gifted and influential African scholars, thinkers and writers. Consistently cogent, commonsensical, powerful and wise, this book will not be the last word on decolonisation—but it is close to it.’

– Biodun Jeyifo, Professor of African and African American Studies and of Comparative Literature, Harvard University
